Mentioning Condor in the acknowledgment section would be just fine and 
would fully satisfy the license.  Including a reference to one of our 
overview papers (www.cs.wisc.edu/Condor/publications) and/or narrowing down 
to a specific publication as Doug suggested would be "nice".

The wording in the license was purposefully left open-ended to empower you 
to use your own judgement on what is appropriate for your own publication.

thanks,
Todd
