Description:

MATLAB is an integrated technical computing environment that combines numeric computation, advanced graphics and visualization, and a high-level programming language oriented towards matrix computation. There are functions for data analysis and visualization, numeric computation, engineering and scientific graphics, modeling, simulation, prototyping, programming and application development.

Bruce Foster, Senior Systems Engineer, Research Computing Services, NUIT, will explain the parallel computing features in MATLAB that can improve productivity, ranging in scale from a personal computer, to shared compute servers, to the Social Sciences Computing Cluster and to the Quest Computing Cluster. License management will be explained, and tactics to deal with limited licenses will be shown. Cluster use will be demonstrated.
