parUpdate function

Update jags models on parallel workers

Update the Markov chain associated with the model on parallel workers. (This represents the 'burn-in' phase when nodes are not monitored.)

parUpdate(cl, object, n.iter=1, ...)

Arguments

• cl: A cluster object created by makeCluster, or an integer. It can also be NULL, see parDosa.
• object: character, name of a jags model object
• n.iter: number of iterations of the Markov chain to run
• ``: additional arguments to the update method, see update.jags

Returns

The parUpdate function modifies the original object on parallel workers and returns NULL.
