Via DRMAA-WG. P. Tröger, R. Brost, D. Gruber, M. Mamoński, D. Templeton Abstract: This document describes the Distributed Resource Management Application API Version 2 (DRMAA). It defines a generalized API to Distributed Resource Management (DRM) systems in order to facilitate the development of portable application programs and high-level libraries. The intended audience for this specification are DRMAA language binding designers, DRM system vendors, high-level API designers and meta-scheduler architects. Application developers are expected to rely on product-specific documentation for the DRMAA API implementation in their particular DRM system. -- Greg Newby, OGF Editor Dr. Gregory Newby, Director of the Arctic Region Supercomputing Center Univ of Alaska Fairbanks-909 Koyukuk Dr-PO Box 756020-Fairbanks-AK 99775-6020 e: gbnewby AT alaska.edu v: 907-450-8663 f: 907-450-8603 w: www.arsc.edu/~newby
