<h2><a href="parallel.html">parallel</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>GNU <strong>parallel</strong> is a shell tool for executing jobs
|
|
concurrently locally or using remote computers. A job is typically a
|
|
single command or a small script that has to be run for each of the
|
|
lines in the input. The typical input is a list of files, a list of
|
|
hosts, a list of users, a list of URLs, or a list of tables.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a href="sem.html">sem</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>GNU <strong>sem</strong> is an alias for GNU <strong>parallel
|
|
--semaphore</strong>.</p>
|
|
<p>It works as a tool for executing shell commands in parallel. GNU
|
|
<strong>sem</strong> acts as a counting semaphore. When GNU
|
|
<strong>sem</strong> is called with command it will start the command
|
|
in the background. When <em>num</em> number of commands are running in
|
|
the background, GNU <strong>sem</strong> will wait for one of these to
|
|
complete before starting another command.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a href="sql.html">sql</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>GNU <strong>sql</strong> aims to give a simple, unified interface
|
|
for accessing databases through all the different databases' command
|
|
line clients. The database is addressed using a DBURL. If <em>commands</em>
|
|
are left out you will get that database's interactive shell.</p>
|
|
<p>GNU <strong>sql</strong> is often used in combination with GNU
|
|
<strong>parallel</strong>.</p>
|
|
|
|
<h2><a href="niceload.html">niceload</a></h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>GNU <strong>niceload</strong> will run a program when the load average
|
|
is below a certain limit. When the limit is reached the program will be
|
|
suspended for some time. Then resumed again for some time. Then the load
|
|
average is checked again and we start over.</p>
