abstract: Provides a high-level R interface to CoreArray Genomic Data Structure (GDS)
  data files. GDS is portable across platforms with hierarchical structure to store
  multiple scalable array-oriented data sets with metadata information. It is suited
  for large-scale datasets, especially for data which are much larger than the available
  random-access memory. The gdsfmt package offers the efficient operations specifically
  designed for integers of less than 8 bits, since a diploid genotype, like single-nucleotide
  polymorphism (SNP), usually occupies fewer bits than a byte. Data compression and
  decompression are available with relatively efficient random access. It is also
  allowed to read a GDS file in parallel with multiple R processes supported by the
  package parallel.
