Faculty of 1000 recommends Sydne Record and colleague’s paper on computational biology

F1000 Prime‘s Ian Wang, “Good for teaching, technological advance. Ecological and evolutionary research has increasingly made use of computationally intensive processes in R. This is a valuable paper with helpful suggestions for writing efficient R code and finding ways to speed up processing. The supplementary information and the associated R package for diagnosing potential problem areas are particularly useful.”

Speeding up ecological and evolutionary computations in R; essentials of high performance computing for biologists.
