GLOST, the Greedy Launcher Of Small Tasks, is a tool for running many sequential jobs of short or variable duration, or for doing parameter sweeps. It works like GNU parallel or job arrays but with a simpler syntax. GLOST uses a wrapper called glost_launch and MPI commands srun, mpiexec and mpirun. Jobs are grouped into one text file, list_glost_tasks.txt, which is used as an argument for glost_launch.
