SLURM

SLURM (Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management) is an open-source system that manages and schedules the use of computing resources in large computer clusters. It helps coordinate multiple users and tasks by allocating CPU time, memory, and other hardware resources efficiently. SLURM ensures that jobs run when resources are available, prioritizing tasks based on rules set by administrators. It's widely used in high-performance computing environments like research labs and data centers to maximize resource utilization and streamline complex computations across many interconnected computers.
