Use this dataset to demonstrate parallel processing with the Launcher and Jobs features

Use start_here.R to analyze 7000 genes in three different modes:

• run_interactive.R runs locally in sequence
• run_localjobs.R runs in three parallel local jobs
• run_launcherjobs.R runs in three parallel launcher jobs

DNA microarrays are used are used to measure the expression levels of large numbers of genes simultaneously. These experimental data come from yeast genome microarrays and can be downloaded here. Our models borrow from the methodology offered in Assessing Gene Significance from cDNA Microarray Expression Data via Mixed Models.
