HiPLAR: HiPLARM

In HiPLARM: High Performance Linear Algebra in R

Description

Multi-core and GPU support for linear algebra functions in the recommended R package Matrix.

Details

Package:	HiPLARM
Type:	Package
Version:	0.1
Date:	2012-08-04
License:	GPL(>=2)

The HiPLARM package can be used in exactly the same manner as the Matrix package on which it depends. The functionality maps that of the Matrix package exactly bar some specialised functions which are documented here. These Optimise functions are only run once to allow HiPLARM to be optimised for particular systems.
