workflow management system?

I am probably being a bit naive, but I would have thought that the batch
system should just be able start your jobs when resources become
available.  Why do you need to check the status of jobs?  I would tend
to think that it is not something users should be doing.

"workflow management system" generally means some other piece of software that 
submits jobs as needed to complete some task.  It might need to know how 
current jobs are doing (running yet, completed, etc) to decide what to submit 
next. I assume that's the use case here.
