r-future
Unified parallel and distributed processing in R
The purpose of this package is to provide a lightweight and unified Future API for sequential and parallel processing of R expression via futures. 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 to switch from sequential on the local machine to, say, distributed processing on a remote compute cluster.
