[R] Parallel processes
Dear R People: I was wondering if there were any packages for parallel programming in R. According to the R-help, at one time there was a package called SNOW. It doesn't seem to exist anymore. Any help would be much appreciated!

Re: [R] Parallel processes
snow still exists, and there is one more package snowFT on CRAN (FT stands for Fault Tolerant) Probably, you didn't find it because of typing its name in capitals. hodgess wrote: According to the R-help, at one time there was a package called SNOW.

Re: [R] Parallel processes
Erin, There is a snow package (note the case) and also a few others. Rlsf, is specific to grids/clusters that use the LSF queue system. More generally, the nws package is more sophisticated and should work on most systems. Also, there is Rmpi (which I haven't used).

Re: [R] Parallel processes
There are R interfaces to MPI and PVM on CRAN, which are Rmpi and RPVM, respectively. hodgess wrote: I was wondering if there were any packages for parallel programming in R.

You can find a decent tutorial on using RMPI here: http://ace.acadiau.ca/math/ACMMaC/Rmpi/index.html On 22-May-07, at 3:46 PM, Kuhn, Max wrote: Erin, There is a snow package (note the case) and also a few others.
