Abstract
A computer system includes a node including a plurality of processes, an instruction unit that designates a key range of data processed by the process, and a distribution unit. When a first key range is processed by a first process and a third key range, which is a portion of the first key range, is processed by a second process that processes a second key range, the instruction unit transmits a first updated key range to the first process, transmits a second updated key range to the second process, and transmits third range update information including first and second new ranges to the distribution unit. When receiving the third range update information, the distribution unit changes the distribution of the data to be processed. The first process performs data processing in the first updated key range and the second process performs data processing in the second updated key range.
