Hum, it sounds to me like you're trying to write some sort of reprogrammable data driven architecture, which is damn cool :) On the topic of data driven architectures, I saw this cool reappearance of the old systolic architecture with IO plane used for image processing[1]. I'm also thinking that if we were to go away from a render based approach to ray tracing on the graphics platform, this will be a very interesting line of research.
