What is Condor?
Condor is a job control system, which allows to run individual jobs (programmes or routines) on a pool (cluster) of machines. Each individual job will run on a single machine of the cluster. Condor can be used for large computing tasks that can easily be split into multiple small or medium sized computations. The Condor System will deal with the distribution of the individual small computations across the machines which were assigned to the Condor pool. More information: http://www.cs.wisc.
