Hi guys,
We often need to iterate over the cartesian product of two dimensions, like
sample X chromosome. This is preferable to nested iteration, which is
complicated. I've been using expand.grid and bpmapply for this, but it
seems like this could be made easier. Like bpmapply could gain a
Streamer package has DAGTeam/DAGParam components that I believe are
relevant.
An abstraction of the reduction plan for a parallelized task would seem to
have a natural
home in BatchJobs.

We use a design iterator in BatchExperiments::makeDesign for a cartesian
product. I found a old version of designIterator (cf.

the optional data.frame input which is easier to read:

I like the general idea of having iterators; was just checking out the
itertools package after not having looked at it for a while. I could see
having a BiocIterators package, and a bpiterate(iterator, FUN, ...,
BPPARAM). My suggestion was simpler though. Right now, bpmapply runs a
single job per
