 # Using the `future` framework
 
-Finally, the `future` framework ([see here](https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/future/index.html)) can be used
-by changing the logical input to `runSimulation(..., parallel)` to the character vector `parallel = 'future'`, while the computation plan is specified via `future::plan()`. For example,
+The `future` framework (see `help(future, package = 'future')`) can also be used for distributing the
+asynchronous function evaluations by changing the logical input in `runSimulation(..., parallel = TRUE/FALSE)` to the character vector `runSimulation(..., parallel = 'future')`, while the computation plan is pre-specified via `future::plan()`. For example, to initialize a local two-worker parallel processing computational plan one can use the follow:
 
 ```{r eval=FALSE}
 library(future)
-plan(multisession)
+plan(multisession, workers = 2)
 
 res <- runSimulation(design=Design, replications=1000, generate=Generate, 
                      analyse=Analyse, summarise=Summarise,
                      parallel = 'future')
+```
+
+The benefit of using the `future` framework is the automatic support of many distinct back-ends, such as, for instance, HPC clusters that control the distribution of jobs via Slurm or TORQUE (e.g., see the `future.batchtools` package). 
+
+For progress reporting the `progressr` package is required and is intended as a wrapper around `runSimulation()`. Specifically, wrap the function `with_progress()` around `runSimulation()` after having specified the type of `handler()` to use, such as via the following. 
+
+```{r eval=FALSE}
+library(progressr)
+
+# Rstudio style handler (if using RStudio)
+handlers("rstudio")
 
-# reset when complete
-plan(sequential)
+# or using the cli package for terminal-based progress 
+handlers('cli')
+
+# See help(progressr) for additional options and details
+
+# to use progressr, wrap/pipe inside with_progress() 
+res <- with_progress(runSimulation(design=Design, replications=1000, generate=Generate, 
+                     analyse=Analyse, summarise=Summarise,
+                     parallel = 'future'))
+```
+
+Finally, when the parallel computations are complete be sure to manually reset the computation plan to free any workers via 
+
+```{r eval=FALSE}
+plan(sequential) # release workers
 ```
