-====SLURM: A Highly Scalable Resource Manager====+
  
 SLURM is an open-source resource manager designed for Linux clusters of all sizes. It provides three key functions. First it allocates exclusive and/or non-exclusive access to resources (computer nodes) to users for some duration of time so they can perform work. Second, it provides a framework for starting, executing, and monitoring work (typically a parallel job) on a set of allocated nodes. Finally, it arbitrates contention for resources by managing a queue of pending work. https://computing.llnl.gov/linux/slurm/ SLURM is an open-source resource manager designed for Linux clusters of all sizes.
