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?

Cheers,
Jan
