= About DRM4G =

'''DRM4G''' is an open platform, based on [[http://www.gridway.org/doku.php?id=start|GridWay]] , to define, submit, and manage computational jobs. DRM4G is a [[https://www.python.org|Python]] ('''2.6+''', '''3.3+''') implementation that provides a single point of control for computing resources without installing any intermediate middlewares. As a result, a user is able to run the same job on laptops, desktops, workstations, clusters, supercomputers, and any grid.
