To illustrate running a job under Condor, you will use a Monte Carlo method for computing π
This is an example of an embarrassingly parallel problem that can easily be run on the Campus Condor Pool. Continue Reading

When Things Go Wrong
To see what happens when a job fails, let us deliberately break the script hello.sh
Submitting Multiple Jobs
So far, we have only submitted a single job. The power of Condor is in making it simple to submit many jobs in one go. Continue Reading
Running Your Job
Condor works by match-making jobs in the queue to available machines in the pool. So far we have seen the two key elements of the pool: the job queue, which is displayed by condor_q and the pool status which is displayed by condor_status. Continue Reading

OrangeGrid: Shifting evolutionary genetics research into high-gear
The grand challenge currently facing biologists is to decipher how the information in our genome manifests itself as the biological characteristics that make up who we are. This process is referred to as establishing genotype-phenotype associations and the ability of scientists to establish these connections in a wide range of organisms has been revolutionized by the rapid increase in available genome sequences. Continue Reading
Covariance analysis of fly genes
Postdoctoral biology researcher Kirill Borziak and Associate Professor of Biology Steve Dorus, in collaboration with Weeden Professor of Biology Scott Pitnick and Biology Professor John Belote, all in the College of Arts and Sciences, utilized OG to run a covariance analysis of genes from 15 fly species, and AVHE to implement pipelines for assembly and analysis of next-generation sequencing data.

Understanding Collective Motion
The Manning group uses theoretical and computational tools to understand collective motion in disordered, non-equilibrium “materials”, where “materials” range from granular solids, to foams, to groups of cells in biological tissues engaged in processes like wound healing, embryonic development, and cancer metastasis.
Unsteady Fluid Dynamics
Study of unsteady fluid dynamics involving both water channel experiments.
