Abstract

Distributed data processing is a cornerstone in modern cloud and edge computing environments because of its ability to handle large amounts of information that can overwhelm a single computer. However, the ontogeny of research in the field of distributed data processing remains poorly characterized. Therefore, we reviewed 70 publications discussing distributed data processing. Distributed processing systems is an active area of research with publications increasing in numbers since the early 2000s. The most salient topics in distributed processing systems were affiliated with system architecture and programming paradigms. However, researchers lack standard metrics for reporting throughput, hampering the comparison of existing studies. This study is a first step towards characterizing this field of research and identifying important areas of opportunity.
