Zusammenfassung:Systems and methods are provided that enable a general framework for partitioning application-defined jobs in a scalable environment. The general framework decouples partitioning of a job from the other aspects of the job. As a result, the effort required to define the application-defined job is reduced or minimized, as the user is not required to provide a partitioning algorithm. The general framework also facilitates management of masters and servers performing computations within the distributed environment.
