You interact with enFuzion through your local computer, which is used to control your parametric execution. This computer is your enFuzion Root . Remote computers, executing individual jobs, are enFuzion Nodes . Each Root can control numerous Nodes of varying sizes and capacities as shown in Figure 2.1. The application is specified in a plan file.
Plans contain parameters and commands.
Plan commands can execute user programs on remote computers or copy files between the local and remote computers. Plans are standard character based files, which can be prepared with any text editor. The Generator takes a plan and interactively builds a custom graphical interface for specifying input values. After your enter the input values, the Generator generates all the jobs for the application and their corresponding input values. The Dispatcher is responsible for managing computational resources.
