Meteor vs Pig

Pig, or Pig Latin, is a programming language for MapReduce specifications. Its main target is the Hadoop execution engine but could also be used in other execution environments. Meteor is a similar system but the target is the Stratophere execution engine.

Your task is to compare these systems, based on benchmarks similar to  PigMix and implement them both in PIg and Meteor. The evaluation should include a comparison of the expressivness of these systems as well as a presenentation of the performance both on the high-level and the lower programming level (Map-Reduce and PACT).
