As mentioned in my sibling comment [1] there are lots of definitions of dataflow. It's plausible that the model in CTM can be expressed entirely with async/await, but I'd like to see it.

As for the second claim, if it's caught on, then it should be easy to point to code that uses it. Or name some industrial systems that use it. There are some programming models that live only in specific industries but they also tend to leak out into open source over time.

And what programming language do those systems use? Are they using Mozart/Oz or something else? I wasn't aware of any production usage of that language but I could be wrong.

For data flow in industrial programming look at IEC 1131 which is a major standard. It's a different world and, no, it doesn't seem to leak out to the mainstream despite there being some very interesting solutions to i/o heavy concurrent problems.
