There are three principal scripts to orchestrate the linking task and one python program that performs comparisons.

The three scripts in order of invocation:

1. setup.sh creates a working directory and copies files needed for the linking task into it.
2. create_jobs splits data files and creates jobs to process the split data.
3. qmanager submits jobs to the HPC job queue.

Finally, link.py runs the comparisons between records and writes out the results. You will not need to invoke link.py directly.

There is a screencast that shows the use of each of these scripts/programs.
