Re: [R] Philip Morris International - Windows10 migration assessment
Hi Kevin, For what it's worth I use R on Windows 10 Pro with the 16299 build (and also with a later build on a different Windows 10 Pro computer.) I also use R on Linux machines (specifically Ubuntu). I use 64 bit versions but both 32bit and 64bit version are available. As Peter wrote previously, R itself has no dependency on MS Office products. However there are thousands of R packages freely downloadable (e.g. from CRAN but also from other sources.) Some of these packages may have explicit dependencies on commercial packages. (e.g. Rmosek is a free package that makes it easy to access the commercial optimization software mosek.) Peter also wrote that the latest release of R is version 3.5.1 which makes your referenced versions quite old. As far as I know it is generally possible to install any version of R (even multiple versions of R) on your computer. For example, when R 3.5.0 was released recently some users experienced some glitches (some of which have presumably been fixed in 3.5.1.) Personally I am staying with R 3.4.2 for a while longer. If PMI requires "commercial" support and has the budget for it, you might consider contacting Rstudio.com which produces some of the major software tools used by the R community - Rstudio and Shiny and additional R packages. They provide both free and commercial versions of RStudio and Shiny and should have a lot of experience dealing with corporate customers. Also by supporting them PMI would be indirectly supporting the R community at large which greatly benefits from the work they do. I hope that helps.

Re: [R] Philip Morris International - Windows10 migration assessment
It is difficult to answer such questions authoritatively, but - we have, to my recollection, no reports of major incompatibility with Windows 10 - however, the version numbers of R increase with .1 per year, and we are currently at 3.5.1, so your versions are 4 and 5 years out of date. Most users are upgraded at least annually, so problems with older versions could go undetected - there is no external cost of migrating to a newer version. R is free software. Rolling it out within an organization could require some manpower, as could sorting out changed behaviour of R and its add-on packages. It should be fairly easy to do a test install of 3.5.1 and run it by your user base to see whether there are issues. - R works cross-platform and has no specific dependency on MS Office products - R can interact with Java, but Java is not generally a prerequisite. You may want to check whether your users use packages with Java dependencies - Peter Dalgaard > On 2 Aug 2018, at 10:45 , Flament, Kevin wrote: > > Dear R Project team, > > I am representing the System Toxicology department of Philip Morris > International in the scope of a Windows 10 migration project. > This project is currently at the end of the assessment phase.

Suggest you take a look at the R website at www.r-project.org; the most important answers are evident there. If you 'require' more authoritative answers within a particular timescale, I suggest you engage an R consultant and pay for them. This is a voluntary list.

[R] Philip Morris International - Windows10 migration assessment
Dear R Project team, I am representing the System Toxicology department of Philip Morris International in the scope of a Windows 10 migration project. This project is currently at the end of the assessment phase. We would require an answer to this email by the end of this week. I would like to ask you some questions related to the following software we are using at PMI : R for Windows 3.0.2 R for Windows 3.1.2 Are all of those software compatible with Windows 10 Enterprise (version 10.0.16299 build 16299)? Are all of those software compatible with Windows 10 LTSC (version 14393.2399)? Are those software compatible with a 32 and/or 64 bit version of Windows 10? Are those application dependent on MS Office? Have those applications any pre-requisites? Such as Java, .Net, Oracle. If the software are not compatible, do you have a new version of this software compatible with the mentioned version of Windows 10? What would be the cost of such migration (instrument replacement if necessary, licence cost, ...)? If the software are not compatible and a new version is not yet available, could you give me an estimation for the future release availability?
