I have a few questions regarding the snow package: 1) Is fine-grained parallelism even possible with R/snow?
(ie, one task that spawns sub-tasks to do work, with results sent back to the parent task). The example(s) only seem to be totally-independent processing (which can be done just as easily with shell-script wrappers....) 2) If so, is an example available? 3. If not, then it is still worth messing with snow to see if you can get an R program to skip through multiple directories, doing the independent processing in each to avoid a potential race condition that could occur if multiple R process one with one .RData file. Thanks a lot! Nisha ______________________________________________ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help
