Dear all,
first of all I apologize for not having changed the object. I just re-used an old email I sent some time ago. The let us go into the question. Our architecture is the following: A (set of) java programs running under a jvm that passes data and instructions to an R instance via RNI and at the end of the process extracts calculated data from R. The question is: can I define a new JVM with a new instance of R on the same machine ? How can I spawn multiple R independent instances using the same package libraries ? Should I instead "duplicate" the initial R installation to get different instances with different libraries ? Is it enough or even in this case the different instances "share" something so they are not really "fully independent" ? Thanks again Angelo -----Messaggio originale----- Da: R. Michael Weylandt [mailto:michael.weyla...@gmail.com] Inviato: venerdì 15 giugno 2012 16.16 A: LINARDI ANGELO Cc: r-help@r-project.org Oggetto: Re: [R] R: Securities earning covariance I'm somewhat confused: i) What does this have to do with your subject line? ii) There does not exist -- to my knowledge -- an implementation of R which runs on the JVM. iii) Have you simply looked into R's native parallel computing options? That seems to be (maybe?) what you are trying to do. Incidentally, thanks to the in-memory model, it is possible to spawn multiple R processes which use the same package libraries [the package is the thing in the library, which is tied to the filesystem] on the same machine (I'm thinking real, but this shouldn't be a problem with a reasonable VM setup either) Michael On Fri, Jun 15, 2012 at 3:05 AM, <angelo.lina...@bancaditalia.it> wrote: > > Good morning. > > I have a real fuzzy question to ask; we have a calculation engine which > is composed by n virtual machines each of them with a jvm 2GB of memory > on Linux Red Hat each of them with the "R" package which comes along > with the Red Hat Linux distribution. > We have now to increase the number of "nodes" trying to avoid to use new > virtual or physical machines.
