Description: This project extends 'R' with a mechanism for efficient parallel data access by utilizing 'C++' shared memory. Large data objects can be accessed and manipulated directly from 'R' without redundant copying, providing both speed and memory efficiency. Memshare was published in Thrun, M.C., Märte J.: "Memshare: Memory Sharing for Multicore Computation in R with an Application to Feature Selection by Mutual Information using PDE" (2026), R Journal, <DOI:10.32614/RJ-2025-043>.
