similar to: R and condor

Hello dear R-help group (and David Smith from REvolution), I would like to perform parallel computing using R with Condor (hopefully using foreach or other recommended solutions, if available) for some "Embarrassingly parallel" problem. I will start by listing what I found so far, and then go on asking for help. So far I found the a manual by Xianhong Xie from Rnews_2005-2 (see page

Hi, I was wondering if anyone has successfully linked R against the Condor libraries so that R can be run as a Condor job in the "standard" (not "vanilla") universe. The advantage of this would be that due to checkpointing, jobs can be suspended and transferred to another node. There is a good overview by Xianhong Xie here:

Hello, I've assembled a Multivariate ctv (with a lot of help from Achim Zeleis, who has now posted the view on CRAN). I'd be grateful for comments regarding missing packages / functions. Opinions on the organisation of the view would also be appreciated, as well as having any errors pointed out. I've adopted a rather broad and vague definition of "multivariate", which may

Dear Experts, Could someone recommend some "quick and dirty" HOWTO on condor based cluster? A did a bunch of cluster setups, I always used PBS (or torque lately). But my professor wants his to be Condor. I started reading Condor documentation, and it is vast. And quick route, like: architecture chart, and parameters I need to configure on master/submit, and compute nodes - somehow

Hello all, Recently I started playing with running R scripts on the Condor system in my institute. (For more on this, have a look at: Running Long R Jobs with Condor DAG by Xianhong Xie link: http://cran.r-project.org/doc/Rnews/Rnews_2005-2.pdf ) Might someone advice me about the following question: How should I handle the RNG (random number generation) in the running of parallel instances of R

Hello, (apologies, I'm not entirely sure whether this question is about R or my limitations with PowerPoint). I've submitted a paper (which has been accepted) but the journal now require me to submit graphs that are "editable in PowerPoint". I would be grateful for suggestions as to how I should do this. The best route seems to be to copy-and-paste the figures from the

I've discussed this a little with Ian off list, but relating to: https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Features/Condor_Cloud Condor Cloud aims at setting up a bunch of Fedora nodes to act as a mini-cloud managed via the Condor grid infrastructure. So the natural question was... Why not use oVirt Node for this rather than a full Fedora OS install? Pulling condor-cloud and condor RPMs into the core

Dear All, I wonder if there is any implemented statistical test in R to test the equality between many correlations. As an example, let X1, X2, X3 X4 be four random variables. let Phi(X1,X2) , Phi(X1,X3) and Phi(X1,X4) be the corresponding correlations. How to test Phi(X1,X2) = Phi(X1,X3) = P(X1,X4)? Many thanks in advance, Bernard

Hi Everyone, I have group of R jobs that should be submitted to the condor when I submit the jobs to the condor, they don't run and when I checked the Sched Log files the jobs are exiting with status code 10. Previously, the jobs ran well on condor but now when I submit the jobs on condor they aren't running.Can anyone explain the meaning of this? Here is my submit file: # Submit file

I am seeking information on whether anyone has written code to perform Horn's parallel analysis (a procedure that informs the selection of the proper number of components in PCA) in R. Thank you in advance for any help you can provide. Please respond off-list at the email address below.

A couple of weeks ago I asked how it is possible to run an R script (not a function) passing some parameters. Someone suggested the function "commandArgs()". I read the on-line help and found no clarifying example. Therefore I do not know how to use it appropriately. I noticed this function returns the pathname of the R executable which is not what I need. I meant to ask if it is

Hi I migrated from Linux to Mac, but I don't this has anything to do with it, but I am not sure. I am writing a small logger package, in which I have a file aaa.R: ,---- | .logData <- new.env() | assign("loggingThreshold", 10, envir = .logData) | assign("logToFile", FALSE, envir = .logData) | assign("logFileName", NULL, envir = .logData) | |

Dear Experts, I know there are many HPC (high performance computing) experts on this list. I'd like to ask your advise. Almost two decades ago I chose to go with OpenPBS (turned down condor and other alternatives for whatever reason) for clusters and number crunchers I support for the Department at the university. It turned out to be not bad, long lived choice. At some point I smoothly

I'm having some trouble creating KVM domains with RBD block devices using virsh. I've managed to get virsh to define the domain, but it gives an error when trying to start the domain: error: Failed to start domain test0 error: internal error process exited while connecting to monitor: char device redirected to /dev/pts/3 kvm: -drive

Sorry for the repetition, unless I've got bad deja vu this questions been asked before but I couldn't turn up an answer on CRAN. Is there already any code in existence for local dependence measures such as Moran's I or Getis and Ord G? Also, S-Plus has a number of interstingly named Cluster Algorithms based on some previous stand-alone fortran algorithms (agnes, daisy etc.) which
