Name[edit]

Is is more than a coincidence that the acronym is that of Slurm, a fictional soft drink in the Futurama universe? Group29 (talk) 13:37, 2 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not according to https://computing.llnl.gov/tutorials/moab/. Don't know if it's a valid reference though. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 193.62.218.79 (talk) 13:36, 30 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

No reference for slurm usage[edit]

I couldn't find any reference for the usage of slurm in the top 10 hpc in the world or that it really used on about 60% of the TOP500 supercomputers — Preceding unsigned comment added by Roezohar (talk • contribs) 06:43, 4 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there, I'm new to wikipedia so am unfamiliar with normal conventions but I am staff at USC and our old web page (hpcc.usc.edu) is cited as a source for the "60% of TOP500" claim. I'm not sure where that number came from but I don't have evidence to support it. The schedMD website makes the claim of 5 in the top 10 (in 2013) used slurm (https://slurm.schedmd.com/slurm.html). It's likely we got the number from an old Slurm presentation but this claim is not our new webpage (carc.usc.edu). Csul USC (talk) 21:08, 18 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
