Package: BayesianTools 0.1.9

Interfacing a model with BT - step-by-step guide | Step 1: Create a runModel(par) function | Case 1 - model programmed in R | Case 2 - compiled dll, parameters are set via dll interface | Case 3 - model programmed in C / C++, interfaced with RCPP | Case 4 - compiled executable, parameters set via command line (std I/O) | Case 5 - compiled model, parameters set via parameter file or in any other method | Case 6 - compiled model, parameters cannot be changed | Step 2: Read back data | Step 3 (optional) - creating an R package from your code | Speed optimization and parallelization | Easy things | Difficult things | Parallelization | Within sampler parallelization | Running several MCMCs in parallel | Thread safety
