Parallelizing Python applications with PyCOMPSs
Javier Conejero

PyCOMPSs is a task-based programming model that enables the parallel execution of Python scripts by annotating methods with task decorators. At run time, it identifies tasks' data-dependencies, schedules and executes them in distributed environments.
