I'm just starting to look at integrating Luke Tierney's 'snow' package with
the 'affy' package in order to parallelize the work.
Initially, I'm planning on modifying 'express' by adding a new parameter
"cl" for cluster. Next I'll probably tackle ReadAffy and friends.
When 'cl' is a valid snow cluster, parRapply, parCapply, clusterAppy, ..
will be called instead of 'apply( ..., 1, ...)', 'apply(.., 2, ..)',
lapply, etc.
1) Comments on the plan?
2) Can I get CVS access (I'll do my work in a branch until OK'ed by the
group)? This will save me the trouble of creating a local CVS archive for
this and trying to keep it in sync.
