Re: [R] question about R on Linux Cluster
As far as I know, there are R interfaces to MPI and PVM. There are also the `snow' and `snowFT' packages on CRAN. -roger apollo wong wrote: Hi, I am in trying to get a new Linux Cluster.

Re: [R] question about R on Linux Cluster
I've used an openMosix cluster to load balance simultaneously running R scripts. For the most part this has worked as expected, but sometimes the R processes don't migrate. Recently, I converted one of my analyses to utilize the SNOW package (using PVM on top of openMosix). I've been quite pleased with the results and plan to use SNOW for other projects in the future. + seth __ [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide! http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html
RE: [R] question about R on Linux Cluster
We use R on a Linux/openMosix cluster and it works very well.
