Investigate the use of DRMAA to submit jobs to clusters.
Currently we have a Torque/PBS specific way of submitting jobs to clusters.
We could make it more portable by using DRMAA instead.
I tried using the Python DRMAA interface. It worked for simple cases, but seg-faulted for some more complex examples. It seemed that the author was looking for someone else to maintain it. I'm not sure that we should pursue this.
Perhaps the project is active, see: https://github.com/drmaa-python/drmaa-python
