**Pipes**: Data is transferred from one module to another using dataflow connections, commonly referred to as Pipes. Each dataflow pipe transfers a specific datatype in SCIRun, denoted by a unique color. Pipes run from the output Port of one module to the input Port(s) of one or more other modules.
