This sounds to me to be a feature that is useful in other contexts also,
such as in the real-time control. There, we were thinking of getting the
dynamic (re)configuration by using some sort of "genom" execution
engine, which can "rewire" according to the state it is in.  Is this
also the "sequencing mechanism" you are referring to, or do you use
another approach?

If it is indeed the same approach, it is worthwhile to think about a
common nomenclature and documentation :-)
