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

             Summary: Merge iterative and non-iterative tasks
                 Key: FLINK-1258
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FLINK-1258
             Project: Flink
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: Local Runtime
    Affects Versions: 0.7.0-incubating
            Reporter: Ufuk Celebi
            Priority: Minor


Currently, the local runtime distinguishes between iterative (AbstractIterativePactTask) and non-iterative (RegularPactTask) tasks.

We could simplify the task hierarchy and logic by merging these. Non-iterative tasks would simply be tasks, which have only a single iteration.

I think that this could also translate to simplified logic for the readers on the lower distributed runtime layer.
