[R] Accessing R as a Web service (UNCLASSIFIED)
Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE I am new to R and somewhat to Web server programming. I am a Java programmer, however, and have done quite a bit with X3D (extensible 3D) computer graphics. A statistician that I work with is doing multidimensional scaling (MDS) and provides some x,y,z's which I display using X3D. Currently he is using Permap which more than gets the job done but is written in Visual Basic (I believe). I think it would be a big job to use Permap as a Web service. So I am looking at R (for other reasons as well). My question is - Can I access R via SOAP, e.g., running on a server. Assuming I worded my question correctly and someone understands my question, please provide URLs . so I can get knowledgeable. Thank you. - Andrew M. Neiderer Classification: UNCLASSIFIED Caveats: NONE
Google for "R and soap" to get information on running R on webserver using soap. cheers, Paul Neiderer, Andrew (Civ, ARL/CISD) wrote:> Classification: UNCLASSIFIED > Caveats: NONE > > I am new to R and somewhat to Web server programming. > I am a Java programmer, however, and have done quite a bit with X3D > (extensible 3D) computer graphics. > > A statistician that I work with is doing multidimensional scaling (MDS) and > provides some x,y,z's which I display using X3D. > Currently he is using Permap which more than gets the job done but is > written in Visual Basic (I believe).
