Hello, I'm reading into grid systems and came across 'pilot jobs' that I can't find a decent explanation for. The wikipedia page [1] is not understandable to me. I know multi-level schemes from distributed graph algorithms, and I guess in this context it means first the resources are scheduled to the applications and then the application does internal scheduling? But some more explanation would be appreciated. I tried looking at the concrete projects implementing pilot jobs linked there but didn't find my answer fast enough.

@Gaze You want to post a question on Computer Science. ("fast enough" -- huh?)
Artificial Intelligence is in public beta. What do you think?

To me, the question list looks very discouraging. Lots of opinion-based and broad questions.

@Raphael ok thanks, I wasn't sure if this warranted a 'full' question. Is your second remark directed at my question?
