    55A '''compound application''' consists of a '''main program''' and one or more '''worker programs'''. The main program executes the worker programs in sequence, and maintains a 'main state file' that records which worker programs have completed. The main program assigns to each worker program a subrange of the overall 'fraction done' range of 0..1. For example, if there are two worker programs with equal runtime, the first would have range 0 to 0.5 and the second would have range 0.5 to 1.
