<h2>Overview</h2>
<p>BibSched -- the bibliographic task scheduler -- is central unit of the
system that allows all other modules to access the bibliographic
database in a controlled manner, preventing sharing violation threats
and assuring the coherent execution of the database update tasks. The
module comes with an administrative interface that allows to monitor
the task queue including various possibilities of a manual
intervention, for example to re-schedule queued tasks, change the task
order, etc.
You can run the administrative interface by doing:
<blockquote>
<pre>
$ bibsched
</pre>
</blockquote>
The <code>bibsched</code> can run in two modes: auto and manual. In
the auto mode, it will execute tasks automatically as they arrive in
the waiting queue. In the manual mode, the administrator has to
launch the tasks manually.
