All jobs for the cluster have to be submitted as batch jobs into a queue. The scheduler then manages and prioritizes the jobs in the queue, allocates resources (CPUs, memory) for the jobs, executes the jobs and enforces the resource allocations. See [the job submission pages](/docs/manual/job-submission) for more information.
