A master R process calls makeCluster +to start a cluster of worker processes; the master process then uses +functions such as clusterCall and clusterApply to execute R code on +the worker processes and collect and return the results on the master. +This framework supports many forms of "embarrassingly parallel" +computations. + +Snow can use one of four communications mechanisms: sockets, PVM, MPI, +or NetWorkSpaces (NWS). NWS support was provided by Steve Weston. +PVM clusters use the rpvm package; MPI clusters use package Rmpi; NWS +clusters use package nws. If pvm is used, then pvm must be started, +either using a pvm console (e.g the pvm text console or the graphical +xpvm console, both available with pvm) or from R using functions +provided by rpvm. Similarly, LAM-MPI must be started, e.g. using +lamboot, for MPI clusters that use Rmpi and LAM-MPI. If NWS is used, +the NetWorkSpaces server must be running. SOCK clusters are the +easiest approach for using snow on a single multi-core computer as +they require no additional software. + +WWW: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/snow/ |
