资 源 简 介
This project is toward a generic toolbox for parallel computing in R.
While the goal sounds a little bit too ambitious, it starts by combining existing packages for parallel processing to a generic front-end (taking advantage of OpenMP directives as comments in serial code) and will extend to more parallel backend.
The project is developed for Google Summer Code 2011 with R Project for Statistical Computing.
package released: rthreads (OpenMP frontend + pthreads backend = built-in MapReduce with multithreading + semi-automatic code parallelization)
