This may be late in the day but... If you job dependencies are too complicated for you queuing system to deal with, you may want to look at the Ensembl Hive system; http://www.ensembl.org/info/docs/eHive/index.html It is the system we use in-house for our genome-analysis pipelines, which have lots of complicated dependencies. It sits on top of a traditional queuing system which handles job-dispatch etc. It has been de-coupled from the genome analysis workflow, so you should (in theory) be able to use it for any analysis.
