Hi,

My first posting to the group!

The Armadillo library allows you to slot in BLAS implementations. I've been 
wondering whether it would be possible to use NVIDIA's CuBLAS library, which is 
a BLAS implementation using CUDA. Would it then be possible to use 
RcppArmadillo to move data in and out of R?

I've also developed some examples of using RInside/Rcpp with ZeroMQ, which 
allows parallel distributed computation, which may interest you. I've promised 
these to Dirk. (Dirk I'll email you the code off list today).

cheers,
Peter.

Hi all,


I'm trying to gauge how hard this would be before I spend too much time down 
this route.  My objects that need to be shared may be too large for this 
approach.

Any advice greatly appreciated.
Chris
