--------------------------------

             Summary: BSPPeer should provide means for chaining supersteps to 
share data among them.
                 Key: HAMA-567
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/HAMA-567
             Project: Hama
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: bsp core
    Affects Versions: 0.6.0
            Reporter: Suraj Menon
             Fix For: 0.6.0


In most scenarios, a superstep would need certain values or objects that were 
computed in the previous superstep. When using the chaining Superstep design to 
implement BSP algorithms, this gets a little ugly/difficult to implement. 
BSPPeer should provide means (preferably a map<String,Object>) so that the next 
Superstep can ask for the values in previous superstep using String token to 
query the map. Also, this map could be checkpointed periodically in the 
background so that we can completely recover the state of a task after failure. 
The BSPPeer object should have a dedicated get and set function for updating 
values in the peer.
