[jsdl-wg] Bulk job submission using JSDL

[Peter Troeger]

As Michel said, it is the responsibility of the submission API the  
support array jobs. If you want to use a standardized job submission  
API, you can check OGSA HPC Basic Profile, DRMAA or SAGA, which all  
support bulk job submission.

Only OGSA HPCP supports JSDL job description so far. DRMAA and SAGA  
still have their own way of describing the job details. The GridWay  
people implemented most of these specs, so this project might be  
interesting for you.

Regards,
Peter.
