Annotation

NCC Slovenia and NCC Czech Republic are inviting you to Parallel R training.

This training is focused on different approaches to how the R code can be parallelised, going from local and single node approach with parallel package to multi-node parallelisation with Rmpi package.

The second day is focused on increasing computation efficiency by introducing Rcpp for seamless integration of C++ code into R code. A simple example of CUDA usage with Rcpp will be shown.

Benefits for the attendees, what will they learn

  • Local or single-node parallelisation of R code with parallel package
  • Multi-node parallelisation of R code with Rmpi package
  • How to speed up code using C++ with Rcpp
  • How to leverage CUDA parallelisation on GPU with Rcpp
