-**Nice**: a factor that can be set by users to prioritize their own jobs. This factor is currently not enabled for our cluster.
-**Job size**: the number of nodes or CPUs a job is allocated
-**Partition**: a factor associated with each node partition
-**QOS**: a factor based on the priority of the Quality Of Service (QOS) associated with the job
-**QoS**: a factor based on the priority of the Quality of Service (QoS) associated with the job

No, a Slurm account is something entirely different. Users can belong to multiple Slurm accounts and multiple users can belong to a single Slurm account. Slurm accounts typically correspond with a group of users and we generally create them on a project basis. Slurm accounts are used for tracking usage and enforcing resource limits. When new project accounts are created, they will consume a portion of the shares allocated for the parent account, which is typically associated with a broader administrative entity, such as an institution, department, or research group.
