Package pbatR updated to version 2.1.5 with previous version 2.1.4 dated 2009-03-10

Author: Thomas Hoffmann , with contributions from Christoph Lange
Title: P2BAT
Description: This package provides data analysis via the pbat program, and an alternative internal implementation of the power calculations via simulation only. For analysis, this package provides a frontend to the PBAT software, automatically reading in the output from the pbat program and displaying the corresponding figure when appropriate (i.e. PBAT-logrank). It includes support for multiple processes and clusters. For analysis, users must download PBAT (developed by Christoph Lange) and accept it's license, available on the PBAT webpage. Both the data analysis and power calculations have command line and graphical interfaces using tcltk.

Package bentcableAR updated to version 0.2 with previous version 0.1.2 dated 2008-05-16

Author: Grace Chiu , Assistant Professor, Department of Statistics and Actuarial Science, University of Waterloo, Waterloo, ON, N2L 3G1, Canada
Title: Bent-Cable Regression for Independent Data or Autoregressive Time Series
Description: This package contains two main interfaces for fitting and diagnosing bent-cable regressions for autoregressive time-series data or independent data (time series or otherwise). The interfaces are 'bentcable.ar()' and 'bentcable.dev.plot()'. Some components in the package can also be used as stand-alone functions. The bent cable (linear-quadratic-linear) generalizes the broken stick (linear-linear), which is also handled by this package. Version 0.2 corrects a glitch in the computation of confidence intervals for the CTP.
