Abstract
An operator tree is formed for a data processing plan, the operator tree containing a plurality of interconnected nodes and including a grouping of two or more duplicative portions, each of the two or more duplicative portions having identical nodes and structure such that when the operator tree is executed, operators executed in a first duplicative portion using a first thread perform same functions use different data than operators in a second duplicative portion using a second thread. One or more operators in the first portion and one or more operators in the second portion to be synchronized with each other are identified. A synchronization point is created for the identified operators in the first thread and one or more subsequent threads, wherein the synchronization point receives information from each of the identified operators to build an artifact to deliver to one or more operators that depend on the artifact.
