Method and system for providing distributed programming environment using distributed spaces, and computer readable recording medium

A computer system for processing data in a distributed computer programming environment, the system comprising:

• a plurality of computer nodes configured to generate a virtual space comprising regions to which data is mapped, the computer nodes being identified in the virtual space based on at least one piece of IP address information and communication port information of the computer nodes;
• and
• a first application to execute an operation using data mapped to a first one of the regions of the virtual space, wherein the data is mapped to the first one of the regions according to attributes of the data by applying a Hash function to the data.

A method for processing data in a distributed computer programming environment, the method comprising:

• generating a virtual space using resources provided by a plurality of computer nodes in a communication network, the virtual space comprising regions to which data is mapped, the computer nodes being identified in the virtual space based on the computer nodes' addresses provided according to a network communications protocol;
• and
• using at least one application computer device in communication with the plurality of computer nodes to execute a first application using data mapped to a first one of the regions of the virtual space, wherein the data is mapped to the first one of the regions by applying a Hash function to the data.
