The design is inspired on the BGLR R-package (BGLR-R). Over time we aim to implement a similar set of methods than the ones implelented in the R version. The R version is highly optimized with use of compiled C code; this gives BGLR-R a computational speed much higher than the one that can be obtained using R code only.

By developing BGLR for Julia (BGLR-Julia) wee seek to: (i) reach the comunity of Julia users, (ii) achieve a similar or better performance than the one achieved with BGLR-R (this is challenging because BGLR-R is highly optimized and makes intensive use of C and BLAS routines), (iii) enable users to use BGLR with memory-mapped arrays as well as RAM arrays, (iv) capitalize on some of multi-core computing capabilities offered by Julia.

Funding of BGLR-R and BGLR-Julia was provided by NIH (R01 GM101219).
