Compute Canada provides a few different tools designed to facilitate running a large number of related serial, parallel, or GPU calculations. This practice is sometimes called "farming", "serial farming", or "task farming". In addition to automating the workflow, these tools can also improve computational efficiency by bundling up many short computations into fewer tasks of longer duration.
As described earlier, [[Array job|array jobs]] can be used to automate job submission. Compute Canada provides a few other (more advanced) tools designed to facilitate running a large number of related serial, parallel, or GPU calculations. This practice is sometimes called "farming", "serial farming", or "task farming". In addition to automating the workflow, these tools can also improve computational efficiency by bundling up many short computations into fewer tasks of longer duration.
