Hi y'all,
Does Bioconductor support GPU/multi-core computing for flow cytometry
data analysis?
For instance, in the flowMerge package there is a pFlowClust option.
When I load the flowMerge library, and call flowClust(), I get the
output 'Using the serial version of flowClust'. I have a quad-core
processor (Intel(R) Core(TM) i5-3210M CPU @ 2.50GHz) and a geForce GT
650M video card (CUDA enabled) running on Debian Testing
3.2.0-4-amd64.
What does pFlowClust look for to choose serial or parallel?
I ask because on my lowly laptop the runtime for flowClust(dat,
K=1:10)
prohibits sound troubleshooting for a flowFrame with 9 stains. I would
like to optimize the hardware I have access to, but I am running out
of
ideas. Any thoughts?
Much thanks,
Kevin
