There is a huge opportunity to advance the state of the art in HPC scheduling by brining the bringing the whole HPC world together, marrying public sector innovations with private sector enterprise know-how, and retargeting the effort wasted re-implementing the same old capabilities again and again towards pushing the outside of the envelope.  At the heart of this vision is fostering common standards (at least defacto standards like common software).  To this end, Altair has made a big investment by releasing PBS Pro under an Open Source license (to meet the needs of the public sector), while also continuing to offer PBS Pro under a commercial license (to meet the needs of the private sector).  One defacto standard that can work for the whole HPC community.  See Bill’s Open Letter to the HPC Community for more details.
