SMP

Symmetric multiprocessing. A system with two or more CPUs that share equal (symmetric) access
to all of the facilities of a computer system, such as the memory and I/O subsystems. In an HP
XC system, the use of SMP technology increases the number of CPUs (amount of computational
power) available per unit of space.

ssh

Secure Shell. A shell program for logging in to and executing commands on a remote computer.
It can provide secure encrypted communications between two untrusted hosts over an insecure
network.

standard LSF

A workload manager for any kind of batch job. Standard LSF features comprehensive workload
management policies in addition to simple first-come, first-serve scheduling (fairshare, preemption,
backfill, advance reservation, service-level agreement, and so on). Standard LSF is suited for jobs
that do not have complex parallel computational needs and is ideal for processing serial,
single-process jobs. Standard LSF is not integrated with SLURM.
