Hi Ashiq, For PROOF, it is possible to check data location and analyze the data in its location. We are also working on a scheduler module which will give the full control of decisions where to analyze each chunk of data. I hope this is of some interest for you. Do you have any particular coscheduling algorithm/solution in mind? What is the motivation?
