Description:

The Topics in Research Computing Series is an eight-session workshop series that will show you how you can scale up your computational research in ways you might not have thought possible. Sessions meet via Zoom on Thursdays at 1 p.m. CST and most are one and one-half hours in length. 

Research Computing Series: Using MATLAB on Quest 
This 90-minute remote workshop demonstrates how to effectively use MATLAB on Quest. We will discuss various methods for submitting jobs including directly from the MATLAB interface on Quest or on a local computer. We will also show how to write submission scripts which can submit and run MATLAB jobs on Quest. We will talk about how parallelization works in MATLAB and how to think about effectively requesting computing resources based on how your MATLAB program is parallelized. Finally, we will demonstrate how to run a GPU accelerated MATLAB program on Quest’s GPU resources. 

Prerequisites: In advance of this workshop, we encourage people to look over our documentation on using MATLAB on Quest.
