The new system that will manage the user jobs on CARL and EDDY will be SLURM (formally known as Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management). SLURM is a free and open-source job scheduler for Linux and Unix-like kernels and is used on about 60% of the world's supercomputers and computer clusters. If you used the job scheduler (Sun Grid Engine or SGE) of FLOW and HERO, it will be easy to get used to SLURM because the concept of SLURM is quite similar.
