abstract: '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., Maerte 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>.'
