Abstract
A system for processing a batch job comprises a processor and a memory. The processor is configured to receive a batch job comprising a sequential or parallel flow of operations, wherein each operation has a defined input type and a defined output type. The processor is further configured to verify that the batch job can run successfully, wherein verifying includes checking that a first operation output defined type is compatible with a second operation input defined type when a first operation output is connected to a second operation input, and wherein verifying includes checking that a parameter used by a calculation in an operation is input to the operation. The memory is coupled to the processor and configured to provide the processor with instructions.
