Abstract:
1. A method comprising: processing, by one or more mapper devices, first incoming data to provide mapped data; providing, by the one or more mapper devices, the mapped data to one or more reducer modules; processing, by the one or more reducer devices, the mapped data to generate reduced data; generating, by the one or more reducer devices, a feedback message, the feedback message comprising configuration information; outputting, by the one or more reducer devices, the reduced data; providing, by the one or more reducer devices to the one or more mapper devices, the feedback message; processing, by at least one of the one or more mapper devices, second incoming data based on the configuration information in the feedback message and by applying one or more suggestive configuration values associated with the feedback message to the second incoming data to provide feedback-influenced mapped data; receiving, by the one or more reducer devices, the feedback-influenced mapped data; and generating, by the one or more reducer devices, another feedback message based on the feedback-influenced mapped data, the other feedback message including configuration information associated with another suggestive configuration value.
