The commercialization of autonomous machines is a thriving sector, and likely to be the next major computing demand driver, after PC, cloud computing, and mobile computing. Nevertheless, a suitable computer architecture for autonomous machines is missing, and many companies are forced to develop ad hoc computing solutions that are neither scalable nor extensible. In this article, we analyze the demands of autonomous machine computing, and argue for the promise of dataflow architectures in autonomous machines.
