Abstract
A method, system and computer program product is disclosed for providing a distributed computing environment in which an arbitrary job manager or scheduler is able to be employed. In the distributed computing environment, a job is created in a host or client to include one or more technical computing tasks and submitted to the arbitrary scheduler in a portable format. Since the portable format of the job is independent of the platform structure of the scheduler, the schedule can handle the job regardless of the platform structure of the scheduler. The scheduler then transfers the job in the portable format to one or more remote workers. The present invention utilizes a portable format to submit the job to a scheduler and to distribute the job to remote workers so that any scheduler can receive and distribute the job to the remote workers.
