Speaking as a bio-IT type, SGE aka "Grid Engine" is *extremely* well
suited for life science workflow requirements and tends to be the
dominating distributed resource management product I see across
biotech/pharma/academic/government installations. Running in second
place is Platform LSF and there are a scattering of PBS/Torque/Condor
sites rounding out third place.
I'd encourage Indrajit to check out both grid engine as well as the
bioclusters mailing list if the cluster is going to be used for
informatics work.

Slurm and SGE. Alas no Torque or PBS.
