Abstract
General-purpose distributed data-parallel computing using a high-level language is disclosed. Data parallel portions of a sequential program that is written by a developer in a high-level language are automatically translated into a distributed execution plan. The distributed execution plan is then executed on large compute clusters. Thus, the developer is allowed to write the program using familiar programming constructs in the high level language. Moreover, developers without experience with distributed compute systems are able to take advantage of such systems.
