ABSTRACT:
A method of processing data is provided, which includes a plurality of processes502to505equipped with dependencies603and a continuation manager814, said processes502to505including a plurality of sub-processes507. The continuation manager814recurrently selects (1301) each of said plurality of processes for execution in the order of their dependencies. The continuation manager further recurrently selects (1302) each of said plurality of sub-processes507within each of said plurality of processes502to505for execution. The output data generated at each of said selected sub-processes507is generated in the order of said dependencies603.
