A simple interface to the instance metadata for a virtual machine running in Microsoft's 'Azure' cloud. This provides information about the VM's configuration, such as its processors, memory, networking, storage, and so on. Part of the 'AzureR' family of packages.

Provides a fast, lightweight, and vectorized base 64 engine
    to encode and decode character and raw vectors as well as files stored
    on disk. Common base 64 alphabets are supported out of the box
    including the standard, URL-safe, bcrypt, crypt, 'BinHex', and
    IMAP-modified UTF-7 alphabets. Custom engines can be created to
    support unique base 64 encoding and decoding needs.

Included here are babel routines for identifying unusual ribosome protected fragment counts given mRNA counts.

Genomic analysis of model organisms frequently requires the
    use of databases based on human data or making comparisons to
    patient-derived resources. This requires harmonization of gene names
    into the same gene space. The 'babelgene' R package converts between
    human and non-human gene orthologs/homologs. The package integrates
    orthology assertion predictions sourced from multiple databases as
    compiled by the HGNC Comparison of Orthology Predictions (HCOP)
    (Wright et al. 2005 <doi:10.1007/s00335-005-0103-2>, Eyre et al. 2007
    <doi:10.1093/bib/bbl030>, Seal et al. 2011 <doi:10.1093/nar/gkq892>).

Run other estimation and simulation software via the 'nlmixr2' (Fidler et al (2019)
  <doi:10.1002/psp4.12445>) interface including 'PKNCA', 'NONMEM' and 'Monolix'. While not required, you can
  get/install the 'lixoftConnectors' package in the 'Monolix' installation, as
  described at the following url
  <https://monolixsuite.slp-software.com/r-functions/2024R1/installation-and-initialization>. When
  'lixoftConnectors' is available, 'Monolix' can be run directly instead of setting up
  command line usage.

Provides a unified interface to interact with
    'docker' and 'singularity' containers.  You can execute a command
    inside a container, mount a volume or copy a file.
