This package provides R bindings for NNG (Nanomsg Next Gen), a successor to ZeroMQ. NNG is a socket library for reliable, high-performance messaging over in-process, IPC, TCP, WebSocket and secure TLS transports. It implements Scalability Protocols, a standard for common communications patterns including publish/subscribe, request/reply and service discovery. As its own threaded concurrency framework, it provides a toolkit for asynchronous programming and distributed computing. Intuitive aio objects resolve automatically when asynchronous operations complete, and synchronisation primitives allow R to wait upon events signalled by concurrent threads.
