> Currently at JPL, the ACOS project is funding development to added the ability to submit CAS jobs to Torque PBS resource manager.  In researching this topic, I found Torque was designed around DRMAA specification and serveral other resource management/grid components in use today also conform to DRMAA specification (e.g. Condor, SGE).
> I believe this can be approached in two ways (or both):
>  - Write CAS-Resource plugins (e.g. Monitor, Batchmgr, etc...) such that CAS-Resource can wrap any resource manager component conforming to the Java DRMAA specification
>  - Enable CAS-Workflow manager to submit jobs to a resource manager conforming to the Java DRMAA specification  
> The implementation of the Java DRMAA Specification has already been implemented:
>  - Gridway (http://www.gridway.org) has implement the Java DRMAA specification and is available for download under Apache licensing (http://www.gridway.org/doku.php?id=software), and when used with Globus which is also under Apache Public License (applicable for 4.0.1+) can be used to wrap DRMAA resource managers.
