Language and execution engine for cloud programming

Skywriting is a programming language and execution engine for distributed, parallel computation. Like previous frameworks (such as MapReduce and Dryad), it masks the complexity of distributed programming. Unlike those frameworks, it offers a full general-purpose programming language for expressing distributed coordination, which enables developers to implement algorithms using arbitrary task structures.
