    A elementwise scalar is deprecated now. Better use unaryfunc operator. Then 
things like A+5 can be represented as 
    
    OpUnaryFunc(A, x=> x+5). 
    
    Unary function mechanism is more generic and affords for unary function 
fusion optimizations.

> With the finalized abstraction of the Mahout DSL plans from the backend 
> operations (MAHOUT-1529), it should be possible to integrate further backends 
> for the Mahout DSL. Apache Flink would be a suitable candidate to act as a 
> good execution backend. 
> With respect to the implementation, the biggest difference between Spark and 
> Flink at the moment is probably the incremental rollout of plans, which is 
> triggered by Spark's actions and which is not supported by Flink yet. 
> However, the Flink community is working on this issue. For the moment, it 
> should be possible to circumvent this problem by writing intermediate results 
> required by an action to HDFS and reading from there.
