I think this is more application specific than your original email suggested. I have seen this kind of features implemented as a client-server model. See root-proof in the fedora repositories. I have used it a few times. Some institutes affiliated to CERN use it internally. This particular implementation allows for concurrent jobs on often distributed datasets when the applications are written using the ROOT C++ framework (again available in Fedora repos). But I think this does not satisfy your "not running on different datasets" requirement. I really think you should choose the framework to experiment with based on your workload rather than the otherway around. Cheers, -- Suvayu Open source is the future.
