Maybe try stackoverflow, since this isn't really a numpy question. To run a command like "python myscript.py arg1 arg2" in a separate process, you can do: p = subprocess.Popen("python myscript.py arg1 arg2".split()) You can launch many of these, and if you want to know if a process p is over, you can call p.poll(). I'm sure there are other (and better) options though.
