Hi,

I noticed a recent thread about the use of SGE cluster to run Moses. I now
know Thomas Meyer provided a script to get Moses (decoder) running on a
cluster using SGE. Also, that folks at Edinburgh are using a large
multi-core machine to run Moses (from @Hieu's mail in the same thread).

My question is as follows:
1. Are there others who have tried to run Moses on clusters that don't use
SGE compatible schedulers (Torque ...).

2. I recently got access to a cluster which uses Slurm as a resource
manager and scheduler. I am wondering if writing a similar perl script
using Slurm is my best option, if some one hasn't already done so?

3. If I port the existing parallelizer using Torque to this Slurm, I would
prefer that the entire pipeline of Moses is run on the cluster (unlike
moses-parallel.pl which parallelizes the decoder alone), so could you also
confirm that this script is the best place to start with:

scripts/ems/support/generic-parallelizer.perl
Thanks.
