In [[computing]] '''job control''' refers to the control of multiple tasks or [[Job (software)|jobs]] on a [[computer system]], ensuring that they each have access to adequate resources to perform correctly, that competition for limited resources does not cause a [[deadlock]] where two or more jobs are unable to complete, resolving such situations where they do occur, and terminating jobs that, for any reason, are not performing as expected.
