[R-pkg-devel] GPU programming in R packages

[Wolfgang Rolke]

Hi, I am currently working on a project that requires calculations on large matrices, for example calculating pairwise distances of points in higher dimensions. This seems to be a natural task for GPU programming, unfortunately I don't have any experience with this. I did some research online and found that a number of R packages such as rput are no longer available on CRAN, so I suppose I shouldn't use those. So my question is, how should I implement a GPU based calculation in a package that will eventually be acceptable for CRAN?

Any hints are appreciated!

Wolfgang
