Abstract

Organization of programming contests often involves maintenance of hundreds of computers. While parallel installation of operating systems is a well understood problem, further maintenance of installed systems is often cumbersome. We present a simple, yet powerful batch processing system, which makes this task easier.

Keywords:

cluster maintenance, batch processing
