Tuesday night I had the opportunity to present on high performance computing in R, and the Los Angeles R Users’ Group. There was so much to talk about that I had to split my talk into two parts. The first part was parallelization and the second part will be big data (and a bit left over from parallelization including Hadoop).
My slides are posted on SlideShare, and available for download here.
The corresponding demonstration code is here.
Topics included:
- Rmpi
- snow
- snowfall and sfCluster
- multicore
- foreach
- brief mention of CUDA and GPUs
Video of the presentation with my commentary:
The video was created with Vara ScreenFlow and I am very happy with how easy it is to use and how painless editing was.

Loved the Part I. Can’t wait to go through Part II!

Hey Ryan,
Very interesting read. I wonder if you will get to read this; I quite liked your beamer theme. Any chance I can see the TeX source for it?
Thanks!
Hi Ryan
The videos of your presentation (parts I and II) have been removed from the server they were hosted (blip). Would you mind uploading them again somewhere else?
saludos desde NZ!
