LeoTask: a fast, flexible and reliable framework for computational research

LeoTask is a Java library for computation-intensive and time-consuming research tasks. It automatically executes tasks in parallel on multiple CPU cores on a computing facility. It uses a configuration file to enable automatic exploration of parameter space and flexible aggregation of results, and therefore allows researchers to focus on programming the key logic of a computing task. It also supports reliable recovery from interruptions, dynamic and cloneable networks, and integration with the plotting software Gnuplot.
