The filters for the portions of the data sets are transferred to one or more filter processors and combined within the one or more filter processors to indicate characteristics of data residing across multiple processing elements to produce a result for a data grouping operation, utilizing transfers based on a combined filter result. In various embodiments, the filter may be a Bloom filter.
