Dr. Yu sent me a version of this intended for OpenMPI back in September. I was just today getting around to trying it, although I noticed that it doesn't work with R v2.6, so my plans just changed a little.
If Dr. Yu gives permission, I'll send to you what he sent to me, or perhaps he'll post it to this list. --andy > -----Original Message----- > From: users-boun...@open-mpi.org > [mailto:users-boun...@open-mpi.org] On Behalf Of Randy Heiland > Sent: Tuesday, December 18, 2007 4:08 PM > To: us...@open-mpi.org > Cc: hpa-ad...@iu.edu > Subject: [OMPI users] Fwd: R npRmpi > > The pkg in question is here: http://www.stats.uwo.ca/faculty/yu/Rmpi/ > > The question is: has anyone on this list got OpenMPI working > for this pkg?
