>             Project: Apache Apex Core
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: David Yan
>            Assignee: David Yan
>              Labels: roadmap
>             Fix For: 3.3.0
>
>
> We would like to support iterative processing by introducing cycles in the 
> graph (known as DAG now, but no longer if we support iterative processing).
> Initial idea is as follow:
> {noformat}
>      |----|
>      v    |
> A -> B -> C -> D
> ^         |
> |---------|
> {noformat} 
> C has two separate backward streams to A and B.  The input ports of A and B 
> that C connects to will have a special attribute on how many window IDs ahead 
> the incoming windows should be treated as, and A and B will be responsible 
> for the initial data for such input ports.
> Another idea is to have C advance the window ID on its output ports and have 
> C generate the initial data on its output ports to A and B.
