Infinity is a software environment simplifying management of computational jobs. It consists of two subsystems: Advanced Module System and Advanced Batch System.
Advanced Module System (AMS) manages scientific software. The software is organized into modules, which consists of software builds. Each build represents a version of the software, its optimisation for target host architecture (CPU, GPU, network interconnect, and others) and mode of parallel execution if supported. To minimize unnecessary burden with a selection of proper software build, AMS contains algorithms for automatic selection of builds which are most suitable for computational resources allocated for jobs submitted into a batch system.
Advanced Batch System (ABS) is an extension of the PBSPro batch system. It simplifies job submission, manages fault-tolerant job data transfer between the host computer and computational nodes, performs many diagnostics tasks suitable for debugging of job crashes, and assembles all run-time information about jobs with the possibility to simple analyze consumed computational resources. ABS supports advanced jobs called collections and has direct support for restartable jobs.
