I have an R script that performs analysis on one chromosome. I want to run this script repeatedly for each chromosome (1-22, X and Y). Right now I have the script set up to accept one argument from command line, the chromosome number. I want to submit multiple jobs to my server in parallel since analysis for one chromosome takes a few hours. After playing around with some options and googling everything, I'm still not sure what the best option is as I've never submitted jobs in parallel to a server (Sun Grid Engine server). I looked into GNU parallel
but I'm not sure how to use it or if it even runs for R scripts. Maybe throw everything in a shell script and submit that to the server? This is a pretty basic question, but any direction would be greatly appreciated!
parallel Rscript plot_LRR_BAF_chromosome_parallel ::: {1..22} X Y
using GNU make with option -j
, replace __CHROM__
in your R script with the chromosome name.
chroms=1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
define method1
$$(addsuffix .out,$(1)) : script.R
cat $$< | sed 's/__CHROM__/$(1)/g' | R --nosave > $$@
endef
all: $(addsuffix .out,$(chroms))
$(foreach C, $(chroms),$(eval $(call method1, $(C) )))
