\item \declareterm{job}\emph{job} refers to a set of one or more \emph{applications} executed as a single invocation by the user within a \emph{session}. For example, ``\textit{mpiexec -n 1 app1 : -n 2 app2}'' is considered a single \ac{MPMD} job containing two applications.
\item \declarterm{process}\emp{process} refers to the execution of instructions which results when a PMIx enabled system is directed to invoke a command.
