Resource Broker

An old friend by now, the class GATResourceBroker was covered in Chapter [*], though there we didn't tell the whole story of this little gem. A GATResourceBroker can be used to do more than simply find and reserve resources. A GATResourceBroker can be used also to submit jobs. For example, it can be used to submit a job to a particular hardware resource, thus letting your Galatea break free of ties that bind, that frightful VIC-20.
