Over the past 10 years, the developers of spatial statistical methodology in R have agreed on a common set of classes and methods for spatial data in R, and thus made the set of 70+ add-on packages for spatial statistical analysis in R a coherent undertaking. The WPS framework allows to upload and expose R scripts dynamically as WPS processes.

ILWIS functionality in ArcMap
ILWIS functionality in ArcMap??? Yes, right.
The 52°North ILWIS and Geoprocessing Communities work close together to expose ILWIS functionality as WPS processes. A first prototype has just been completed. Witht the 52°North ArcMap WPS client any functionality exposed as WPS can be integrated in ArcMap-so ILWIS functionality can now be used to complement ESRI functionality in a hassle free way.
In the screenshot (click to enlarge!) below you can see the ILWIS MapMovingSurface interpolation algorithm in ArcMap:
