Key Concepts

autojob is designed with the following workflow in mind:

  1. Task creation: initializing the task data model and writing inputs to directory

  2. Execution: Task runs on HPC

  3. Harvesting/Analysis: loads results using calculator-specific and custom “harvesters”

  4. Workflow: progress through DAG-based Workflows

The following sections describe key concepts required for implementation of the above workflow.
