**Work directory** Yes It's the directory on the job's resource where the job will be executed.
**Result directory** Yes It's the directory in the user computer where the job's results have to be
copied at the end of the job.
+**WC Key** No The Workload Characterization Key is used on some clusters to associate each
+ job with a project or organization.

The second table below describes the attributes of computation requirements.
======================== ==============================================================================
**Maximum duration** It's the maximum expected duration of the job. When a batch manager is used, this
time is interpreted as a **walltime** and not as a **cputime**. If maximum
- duration is set to 0, the time will be set to the default value of the
+ duration is not set or set to 0, the time will be set to the default value of the
batch queue selected.
**Number of cpu** It's the number of cpus/cores requested.
-**Memory** It's the amount of memory per node expected.
+**Memory** It's the amount of required memory. It is generally specified **per node**.
+ With some batch mangers, it is possible to specify the required memory
+ **per core** (only available with SLURM for now).
**Queue** It's optional. It permits to choose a specific batch queue on the targeted cluster.
If it is not defined, most of the batch systems will affect your job to the queue
that fits with the other attributes requirements.
+**Exclusive** It indicates if the job can share nodes with other jobs or not.
======================== ==============================================================================
+In addition to those attributes, the user can also specify some extra parameters with a few lines that
+will be added "as is" to the job submission file.
