Caffe, a popular machine learning framework, has a number of characteristics - such as GPU acceleration and checkpoint/resume capability - which can make managing multiple users and runs on shared resources challenging for end users, and frustrating for IT staff seeking the highest possible utilization of extremely costly hardware

Using HTCondor, these challenges can be overcome by using a variety of powerful submit description features and capabilities tailored for Caffe's design, thereby simplifying the user experience while also maximizing utilization.
