What you are interested in would probably fit better with a 
multi-threaded model than distributed computing. Do you example with 
multi-threading would be as follows:

1. Create a process to manage the threads
2. Split up the work into chunks and assign individual threads to work 
on each chunk
3. Gather up the results of the thread

Could you do this with CF? It would be a serious hack, but yeah, it 
could be done. Although, it would be fire easier to do this with Java. 
Possibly, a mixture of CF and Java would work best in your case.
