Questions about the methods of a published study should be directed to the 
corresponding author(s) of that study.  A quick look suggests that they might 
have been utilizing either the pull code or acceleration options, and either 
controlling the workflow with external scripts or modified code.  The specifics 
are up to the authors to explain to you.
