- | For HPC (High performance computing) environments where there are many users who have more computation to do than the computers can handle at one time, a job queue scheduling system exists to fairly distribute and queue computation for all users. *slurm* provides this. | + | For HPC (High performance computing) environments where there are many users who have more computation to do than the computers can handle at one time, a job queue scheduling system exists to fairly distribute and queue computation for all users. |
- | This means we can not simply run an iterative terminal (e.g. matlab, R, ipython) or even a script. Instead we need to wrap our computation in scripts that are formatted to enter the job queue and submit them with `sbatch`. The biggest change is we need to know how many cores and how long the job we are submitting will take. | + | This means we can not simply run an iterative terminal (e.g. matlab, R, ipython) or even a script.
