+Conductors
+----------
+
+Overview
+========
+
+Conductors in TaskFlow provide a mechanism that unifies the various TaskFlow
+concepts under a single easy to use (as plug-and-play as we can make it)
+construct.
+
+They are responsible for the following:
+
+* Interacting with :doc:`jobboards <jobs>` (examining and claiming
+  :doc:`jobs <jobs>`).
+* Creating :doc:`engines <engines>` from the claimed jobs (using
+  :ref:`factories <resumption factories>` to reconstruct the contained
+  tasks and flows to be executed).
+* Dispatching the engine using the provided :doc:`persistence <persistence>`
+  layer and engine configuration.
+* Completing or abandoning the claimed job (depending on dispatching and
+  execution outcome).
+* *Rinse and repeat*.
+
+.. note::
+
+     They are inspired by and have similar responsiblities
+     as `railroad conductors`_.

 **not** prohibit the user from creating their own strategies for doing this).
