Style #30
==============================
Constraints:
- Input data is divided in chunks, similar to what an inverse multiplexer does to input signals
- A map function applies a given worker function to each chunk of data, potentially in parallel
- A reduce function takes the results of the many worker functions and recombines them into a coherent output
Possible names:
- Map-reduce
- Inverse multiplexer (check out electronics)
