At my university we have 50 computers in the lab. We would like to use a scheduler to schedule our fluid models, and I was wondering what is a good suggestion?
TIA

SGE (Sun Grid Engine):

Or if you've got a lot of money you need to burn, you can use LSF:

you might look at using one of the scientific clustering packages, like Oscar, which implements and manages an MPI cluster. this of course assumes your fluid model software is written to use MPI

If you're going for cluster software you might consider
It's even based on CentOS.
Here at our place we have a dedicated cluster with Rocks. In addition I took the SGE-rpm from the distribution and installed it on our regular (CentOS) workstations so that jobs can be scheduled on these machines too
Thankyou everyone. How does SGE compare? Is it easy to implement? What about its features compared to others? How is the code quality, stability, and documentation?
TIA
