Yes SGE can handle dependencies between jobs and even dependencies
between tasks in a job array.
The job dependency syntax depends on job naming in the most common use
case, here is a simple example:
qsub -N DataStagerTask ./my-SGE-job.sh
qsub -hold_jid DataStagerTask ./my-analytic-job.sh
The "-hold_jid <name>" argument is what makes the 2nd job dependent on
the 1st job exiting before it will run

Hi Ed,
I am wondering if SGE allows users to specify dependencies between
jobs. For example, I may need job1 be finished before job2 is started,
even thought there might be enough resource to run job2 at a given
time.
Would you please let me if SGE do so? Thanks.
