SYSTEM FOR INTEGRATING TASK AND DATA PARALLELISM IN DYNAMIC APPLICATIONS

A system for integrating task and data parallelism in a dynamic application that includes at least one task for processing an input data stream to produce an output data stream replaces the at least one task with the following components. A splitter task for partitioning the input data stream into a plurality of data chunks. A plurality of worker tasks for processing subsets of the data chunks, each worker task being an instance of the at least one task, and a joiner task combining the processed data chunks to produce the output data stream.
