SharedObject

This package is for version 3.10 of Bioconductor; for the stable, up-to-date release version, see SharedObject.

Sharing R objects across multiple R processes without memory duplication


Bioconductor version: 3.10

This package is developed for facilitating parallel computing in R. It is capable to create an R object in the shared memory space and share the data across multiple R processes. It avoids the overhead of memory dulplication and data transfer, which make sharing big data object across many clusters possible.
