Abstract
A distributed system includes a plurality of nodes connected over a network. Each node has a unique node identifier which identifies the node in the distributed system. Tasks are launched from any node in the distributed system and include one or more node identifiers. If a node receives a task including its node identifier, the node executes the task. Each node may store each task in a log. If a node fails, after recovering from the failure, the node queries the distributed system for tasks which were not received and tasks which were not completed due to the failure.
