Abstract

Executing graph-based computations includes: accepting a specification of a computation graph in which data processing elements are joined by linking elements; dividing the data processing elements into sets, at least one of the sets including multiple of the data processing elements; assigning to each set a different computing resource; and processing data according to the computation graph, including performing computations corresponding to the data processing elements using the assigned computing resources.
