https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=1572459 Bug ID: 1572459 Summary: Review Request: R-future - Unified Parallel and Distributed Processing in R for Everyone Product: Fedora Version: rawhide Component: Package Review Assignee: nobody@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Reporter: quantum.analyst@xxxxxxxxx QA Contact: extras-qa@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx CC: package-review@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Spec URL: https://qulogic.fedorapeople.org//R-future.spec SRPM URL: https://qulogic.fedorapeople.org//R-future-1.8.0-1.fc27.src.rpm Description: The purpose of this package is to provide a lightweight and unified Future API for sequential and parallel processing of R expression via futures. The simplest way to evaluate an expression in parallel is to use `x %<-% { expression }` with `plan(multiprocess)`. This package implements sequential, multicore, multisession, and cluster futures. With these, R expressions can be evaluated on the local machine, in parallel a set of local machines, or distributed on a mix of local and remote machines. Extensions to this package implement additional backends for processing futures via compute cluster schedulers etc. Because of its unified API, there is no need to modify any code in order switch from sequential on the local machine to, say, distributed processing on a remote compute cluster. Another strength of this package is that global variables and functions are automatically identified and exported as needed, making it straightforward to tweak existing code to make use of futures. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
