\title{BiocParallel News}
\section{CHANGES IN VERSION 0.5.5}{
\subsection{NEW FEATURES}{
\itemize{
\item \code{multicoreWorkers()} determines the number of workers
based on operating system (Windows: 1), user preference (via the
global option \code{options(mc.cores=...)}), or system capability
(\code{detectCores()}).
\item \code{bpparam()} selects a default \code{BiocParallelParam},
from global options or, if that fails, the most recently
\code{registered()} back-end.
}
}
\subsection{SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES}{
\itemize{
\item Rename argument controlling resumption on error as
\code{BPRESUME}
\item Default to parallel back-end (multicore on non-Windows; snow
on Windows).
}
}
\subsection{BUG FIXES}{
\itemize{
\item bpvec,ANY,MulticoreParam-method with fewer tasks than cores
evaluates only the cores for which tasks are defined.
}
}
}
\section{CHANGES IN VERSION 0.5.2}{
\subsection{NEW FEATURES}{
\itemize{
\item \code{mclapply()}, \code{pvec()} require only \code{length},
\code{[}, and (for \code{mclapply}) \code{[[}.
\item \code{pvectorize()} creates a parallel version of its
vectorized function argument.
\item \code{MulticoreParam}, \code{SnowParam}, \code{DoparParam}
(foreach-derived), \code{SerialParam} to parameterize back-ends.
\item \code{bplapply}, \code{bpvec} as parallel evaluation
models.
\item \code{bpstart}, \code{bpstop}, \code{bpisup} for back-end
management.
\item \code{bpvec} has a new argument \code{AGGREGATE}, a function
to specify how results are to be combined.
\item Support for BatchJobs back-end added, via GSOC Michel Lang.
}
}
\subsection{SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES}{
\itemize{
\item \code{BPPARM} is now used as the argument name for passing
BiocParallelParam instances to functions.
\item \code{bplapply} and \code{bpvec} now only dispatch on
\code{X} and \code{BPPARAM}.
}
