==History==
Slurm began development as a collaborative effort primarily by [[Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory]], [[SchedMD]],<ref>{{cite web|url=https://www.schedmd.com/ |title=Slurm Commercial Support, Development, and Installation |publisher=SchedMD |access-date=2014-02-23}}</ref> Linux NetworX, [[Hewlett-Packard]], and [[Groupe Bull]] as a Free Software resource manager. It was inspired by the closed source [[Quadrics_(company)| Quadrics RMS]] and shares a similar syntax. The name is a reference to the [[Fry and the Slurm Factory#Slurm|soda]] in [[Futurama]].<ref>{{cite web|url=https://slurm.schedmd.com/slurm_design.pdf |title=SLURM: Simple Linux Utility for Resource Management |date=23 June 2003 |access-date=11 January 2016}}</ref> Over 100 people around the world have contributed to the project. It has since evolved into a sophisticated batch scheduler capable of satisfying the requirements of many large computer centers.
{{As of|2021|November}}, [[TOP500]] list of most powerful computers in the world indicates that Slurm is the workload manager on more than half of the top ten systems.
