A system is configured to create a profile that allows a job to be performed within a distributed computing environment comprising one or more computing devices; provide an interface that allows the profile to be specified; obtain a scheduler component via the interface, where the scheduler component identifies a scheduler to be used to perform the job and an application that at least one of the computing devices, that is specified by the scheduler, is to use when performing the job; obtain, via the interface, a project component that identifies data on which the job is to be based; and create the profile based on the scheduler component and the project component.

Use of dynamic profiles for creating and using a distributed computing environment

The present invention provides a method and system for dynamically configuring computing environment for concurrent computing. Given a specific configuration and/or the number of concurrent computing labs at start up of an executable process, the executable process may be set up for parallel computing environment using local resources and/or remote resources. A configuration is used to store all configuration information so that a one-string configuration may be used. The one-string configuration may be used at start up of an executable process or may be provided as an argument to a function.
