	As an alternative, you may also want to consider the ~~software package~~ [~~https://docs.computecanada.ca/wiki/~~META:~~_A_package_for_job_farming~~ META] developed by Compute Canada staff, which has some important advantages over GLOST. In particular, with META the queue wait time may be significantly shorter than with GLOST, and META overheads are smaller (fewer wasted CPU cycles). In addition, META has a convenient mechanism for re-submitting all the computations ~~which~~ never ran or failed. Finally, unlike GLOST, META can be used for all kinds of jobs - serial, multi-threaded, MPI, GPU, or hybrid.
