A cluster scheduler (or resource manager) like SGE, SLURM, or Torque can itself be viewed as a parallel application running on a cluster. So I'm wondering, have any such schedulers been implemented *as* an MPI program? (Or PVM or whatever else?) If not, why not? Does the MPI programming environment not provide a suitable substrate for what a cluster scheduler needs to do?
