 # SLURM Job Array # SLURM Job Array
-[SLURM job array](https://slurm.schedmd.com/job_array.html) provides a way to submit multiple similar but independent computational jobs to large number of dataset in concurrent manner. Array jobs and required resources are defined in the same master batch-script and the SLURM will control the workflow by automatically submitting array tasks that are based on single submitted master job.+[SLURM job array](https://slurm.schedmd.com/job_array.html) provides a way to submit multiple similar but independent computational jobs with large number of dataset in concurrent manner.

-Below we have an example of fastqc quality analysis for multiple fastq nucleotide files. It scans for the "data" directory for any fastq files and executes fastqc run on each file. Results are stored to common directory. SLURM creates array of maximum of 100 subjobs, distributes the subjobs to computing nodes and executes 3 computing job concurrently.+Below we have an example of [fastqc](https://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/) quality analysis for multiple fastq nucleotide files.
