[Swift-devel] pilot job paper

[Ketan Maheshwari]

In section IV.C I did not understand this about Swift Coasters:

"" there is no possibility to manage this resource pool programmatically ""

Which seem to be slightly contradicting with the last statement in the same
para:

""SWIFT and Coaster supports various scheduling mechanisms, e. g. a FIFO and
a load-aware scheduler.""

Also, Nimrod/G is mentioned as a pilot-based framework, but no details are
provided. As of 2008, when I used Nimrod/G, it did not have a pilot-based
execution framework.

A bit surprised that MOTEUR's interface with pilot-based system DIANE and
its many interesting recent results are not discussed provided that Marc
Santcroos is one of the developers.
