English term or phrase: overnight batch jobs
"The shortest and best route to getting more utilization, better capacity, is with something like grid," says Philip Cushmaro, CIO and managing director at Credit Suisse First Boston (CSFB).
Cushmaro's organization began using grid computing back in 1999 for overnight batch jobs, work that wasn't particularly time-sensitive and could make good use of otherwise wasted CPU cycle

Explanation:
batch - In Taiwan, "уΩ" is a standard translation for "batch" as most techinical people would recognize the term.

job - In the hardware/software world, the "job" can be translated as 穨祘, depends on the context.

overnight - I went a bit further to explain it as ノ丁丁┮秈︽ since in the following context, it is already explained that these "overnight batch jobs" are not time-sensitive thus make good use of otherwise wasted CPU cycle. Since the more important jobs are mostly done at day time, and leave these repeating, tedious, and time-consuming jobs at night.
