I tried ot build rpvm in my own makefile. But runs into some linker errors like e.g. undefined reference to `_R_alloc' My enviornment looks like this: CYGWIN pvm 3.4 compiled under cygwin myself R installed from the rw2001.exe setup file. I guess that the R under rw2001.exe was build with some other compiler? I...

Hello, I'm trying to install the rpvm package under Windows, but I am having problems. I have pvm3.4 installed properly. I've defined the system variables PVM_ROOT = C:\PROGRA~1\pvm3.4\ PVM_ARCH = win32 When I try to install, I get this: C:\R\Packages>Rcmd INSTALL rpvm_1.0.1.tar.gz ---------- Making package rpvm -------...

I've trying to fix the check error in rpvm package. Right now on my Mac, I use darwinport to install PVM and I can get rpvm to pass the check using 'R -arch x86_64 CMD check'. However the default 'R CMD check' uses i386 which fails since PVM is built for x86_64 only. So is there a way to ensure proper architecture is used t...

Hi, does anybody know how to use the dual processors in the machines of a cluster? I am using R with rpvm and snow packages. I usually start pvm daemon and add host machines first, and then run R to start my computing work. But I find that only one processor in each machine is used in this way and the other one always stays idle. Is there any simple way to tell pvm to use the two processors at the same...

Hello R enthusiasts, I am working with a Fedora Core 6 OS and R 2.5. I have just finished loading PVM on my test cluster and this is working properly. Also, rpvm has been loaded in R. However, when I try to load my test program, I receive this error: Loading required package: rpvm Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) ; unable to load shared library '/usr/local/lib/R/library/rpvm/libs/rpvm.so': /usr/local/lib/R/library/rpvm/l...

Dear Friends, I'm trying to learn to use parallel computation using snow & rpvm Now, I have two boxes: 1) Pentium 4, pvm 3.4.5, R 2.2.0 with FreeBSD 5.4 (box uffbsd); 2) PowerPC, pvm 3.4.5, R 2.1.1 with Debian Linux latest stable (box powerpclinux); I'm using the instructions in (found in snow.pdf) http://www.stat.uiowa. edu/~luke/R/cluster/cluster.html. Now ** from...

Dear R Users, Is there a version of rpvm available for windows ? I have recently had some problems with snow using SOCKS and was considering PVM as an alternative.

Hi, I'm developing an R/TclTk application which uses the BWidget and Tktable Tk extensions and I'm trying to make it easy to install. For now, I'm focusing on Windows users who start with nothing. I have built Tcl/Tk and Tktable for windows using Msys/MinGW. (BWidget contains only Tcl scripts so does not need building.) I have then copied Tktable and BWidget into the lib subdirectory

...he like), collect the results, and go on my happy way. I might do this all within R (using system calls to fork off other R processes?) or by using Perl as a wrapper. But surely there are others that have faced and solved this problem already! I do not *think* that I want to go into the details of RPVM since my needs are so limitted. Does anyone have any advice for me? Various postings to R-help have hinted at ideas, but I couldn't find anything definitive. I will summarize for the list. To the extent that it matters: > R.version _ platform sparc-sun-solaris2....

...rrently, there is nothing "simple" for solving my problem. 2) I thought that Timothy Keitt's description of the use of a relational database for keeping track of different runs was quite interesting. 3) It seems clear that the "future" of this sort of activity lies with RPVM (already available on CRAN) and SNOW by Luke Tierney. I found the description of SNOW available at http://www.stat.umn.edu/~luke/R/cluster/cluster.html to be intriguing. 4) Since my needs are so simple, I will probably just hack something together myself that involves splitting my big...

Dear R-devel, Inspired by Michael Li's talk at JSM, I decided to try rpvm and snow on our two linux boxes. It only took me a couple of hours of screwing around to get it working (sooner if I had RTFM). Our setup is: 2 dual PIII-866 Xeons, one with 2GB RDRAM, the other with 1.28GB RDRAM. The first machine is acting as the NIS/NFS server. both /usr and /home are expo...

...r not running lamboot first. I am able to to lamboot and lamexec, and I also tried setting LAMRSH to use ssh on the master. My "network" is just my dual-CPU machine. Tony Rossini's notes (http://www.analytics.washington.edu/~rossini/courses/cph-statcomp/cph-4.pdf) refer to SNOW and rpvm as being "currently maintained" (last page), which hints that Rmpi might not be. I'm kind of interested in getting Rmpi to work (I and others here have been using Rmpi), though I suppose we could switch to rpvm, so I'll probably keep fiddling with it. I'm using LAM 6.5.8-2....

Dear all, does anyone know if there exists an effort to bring some kind of distributed computing to R? The most simple functionality I'm after is to be able to explicitly perform a task on a computing server. Sorry if this is a non-informed newbie question...

...on top of Rmpi, perhaps its utility code would be useful in conjunction with Rmpi? - taskPR: Sounds equivalent to snow. Also uses MPI underneath. - Rmpi: Probably. Should definitely work for my needs, only question is if it's the best choice. Is it stable, complete, robust, etc.? - rpvm: Maybe. Should be equivalent to Rmpi, but MPI is much more popular on clusters than PVM these days. - NetWorkSpaces: Maybe. This looks like a rather mature and well-supported multi-language TupleSpace implementation, so it could certainly be made to work. Passing all my large R data o...

In researching previous work, the most promising approaches seem to be: A.
