Abstract

A distributed execution system includes an output-side pipe worker that operates on a node same as an output-side worker realized by a first distributed program, and an input-side pipe worker that operates on a node same as an input-side worker realized by a second distributed program, receives output data on the output-side worker from the output-side pipe worker, and transfers it to the input-side worker, in which the output-side pipe worker acquires, from the output-side worker, output data together with a sequence number indicating an order of the output data to be transmitted to the input-side worker, acquires a restore sequence number corresponding to an execution state of the input-side worker, compares the sequence number and the restore sequence number, and does not forward, to the input-side pipe worker, the output data acquired together with the sequence number indicating the order equal to or earlier than the restore sequence number.
