TITLE:		Slurm Workload Manager


SPEAKER:	MORRIS JETTE   (CTO, SchedMD LLC)


ABSTRACT:

Slurm is an open-source, fault-tolerant and highly scalable workload 
management framework. Slurm includes an extensive suite of plugins to 
support a wide range of architectures and use cases ranging from managing 
the processes and cores on a single microprocessor to managing the 
workload on many of the largest computers in the world.  Some of Slurm's 
advanced features include resource allocations optimized for network 
topology, gang scheduling (time-slicing of parallel jobs), hot-spare 
resources for failure management, energy management, and the ability to 
re-size running job.  An overview of Slurm's architecture and capabilities 
will be presented along with future development plans to satisfy the needs 
of exascale computing.
