#  simple.condor
#
#  Discussion:
#
#    This file can be used to submit a job to the CONDOR queueing system
#    which will invoke the MATLAB program.
#
#    The "initialdir" switch is not given here.  Therefore, we will have to
#    submit the CONDOR script from the directory where we want work to occur.
#
#    The "universe" is "vanilla", because we are not asking for checkpointing
#    and special CONDOR features, nor are we interested in MPI.
#
#    The "executable" is MATLAB.  We presume that MATLAB is located in
#      /usr/local/bin/matlab
#    on whatever machine CONDOR executes this job.
#
#    The "transfer_executable" argument is FALSE because we expect the executable
#    to already reside on the target machine; CONDOR should not try to copy
#    it from the machine where we submit the job.
#
#    The "requirements" argument is (HasMATLAB==TRUE) which means we want CONDOR
#    to try to run our program on a machine that has MATLAB.  (These flags are
#    set up by the local installers of CONDOR, and so vary from site to site.)
#
#    The "log = simple.log" argument means that a log file will be created.
#
#    Similar remarks apply to the "error" and "output" arguments.
#
#    "notification = Never" means we don't want to receive a message that the
#    job has executed.
#
#    "WhenToTransferOutput=ON_EXIT" means that CONDOR should retrieve output from
#    the job when it is finished executing, and not before.
#
#    "transfer_input_files = simple_script.m, simple_function.m" indicates that 
#    CONDOR should copy these files from our submit directory to the target machine 
#    before executing the program.  
#
#    "arguments = -nodesktop -nosplash < simple_script.m > simple_output.txt" 
#    allows us to specify the input arguments
#    to the executable.  In this case:
#    "-nodesktop" suppresses the default display of MATLAB's desktop interface;
#    "-nosplash" suppresses the default display of the MATLAB logo;
#    "< simple_script.m" indicates that MATLAB should read this file as input.
#    "> simple_output.txt" indicates that output to the screen should be redirected
#    to this file.
#
#    The "queue" command causes CONDOR to assemble the information and submit
#    it to the queue.  It is possible to send multiple instances of a single job,
#    (while varying the input and output filenames) by using a command like
#    "queue 5", but that is for later discussion.
