"-pe" means you are submitting your job to a parallel environment where you may be using more than one processor or queue slot. Substitute the n with the number of processors that your job will need to run. n has to be at least "1."
It is important that you correctly indicate the number of processors that you will need so that a compute node will not have to swap jobs on a compute node or that the compute node will become completely bogged down.
"./shell indicates that the shell for the run is located in the current directory, the directory from which I am submitting the job. This name will vary with the name of your shell and its location.
