Scientific Computing with Ruby Tegu (formerly GSA)
summary
TIGU is a Ruby workbench that wires existing tools (R, Octave, GSL, RubyFan) into a plugin-driven analysis pipeline, deployable to EC2/Hadoop or Rinda clusters by November. It runs experiments as modular jobs with run/map/reduce signatures, schedules them via a learning TIGU workload manager, records runs in a transactional lab book, and publishes benchmarks on Tigu Hub. Concrete uses include Netflix-style model ensembles, genomic-scale data processing, and a traveling‑salesman demo driven from a simple directive DSL with job signature.
