It manages the execution of large sets of parametric tasks on lightweight grid by submitting individual jobs to each batch scheduler. It’s associated to the OAR resource management system (batch scheduler). Users can easily monitor and control their set of jobs through a web portal. System provides mechanisms to identify job error causes, to isolate faulty components and to resubmit job in a safer context. See also the web page http://cigri.imag.fr/
