Package

r-parallelly

Description

Enhancing the 'parallel' Package. Utility functions that enhance the
'parallel' package and support the built-in parallel backends of the
'future' package. For example, availableCores() gives the number of CPU
cores available to your R process as given by the operating system,
'cgroups' and Linux containers, R options, and environment variables,
including those set by job schedulers on high-performance compute
clusters. If none is set, it will fall back to parallel::detectCores().
Another example is makeClusterPSOCK(), which is backward compatible with
parallel::makePSOCKcluster() while doing a better job in setting up
remote cluster workers without the need for configuring the firewall to
do port-forwarding to your local computer.
