Compute-related resources granted by core-year and GPU-year allocations require research groups to submit what are referred to as jobs to a scheduler. A job is a combination of a computer program (an application) and a list of resources that the application is expected to use. The scheduler is a program that calculates the priority of each job submitted and provides the needed resources based on the priority of each job and the available resources.
