I use R, Maybe this can help you ...

#+begin_src R :exports results :results output drawer :var backend=(symbol-name 
org-export-current-backend)
  require("ascii")
  plot.org  <- function (x, caption)
      {
          pngfile <- paste(caption, ".png", sep="")
          pdffile <- paste(caption, ".pdf", sep="")
          print(paragraph(paste("#+CAPTION: ", caption, sep="")),type="org")
          if (backend != "latex"){
              png(pngfile)
              plot(x)
              dev.off()
              print(paragraph(paste("[[./", pngfile, "]]", 
sep=""),new=FALSE),type="org")
          }else{
              pdf(pdffile)
              plot(x)
              dev.off()

      }

  plot.org(rnorm(100),"test")
