Applications and Uses for MATLAB
Event description
- Professional and career development
This workshop will focus on approaches to porting Matlab applications to a supercomputer environment such as that of ASU's Agave supercomputer. This is not an intro to Matlab course. The intended audience member will have developed Matlab code that runs on a desktop machine but now would like to run this code in a parallel environment. This may be implemented through either:
- Batch submission of multiple single-threaded instances (e.g. parameter sweep)
- Multithreading m file using "parfor" command
- Confronting large datasets using distributed arrays or tall arrays
- Exploiting Matlab functions ported to GPU
- Multithreading C-code using OpenMP or writing cuda kernels and compiling with mex compiler to be called by Matlab
- Introduction to features of the Matlab Parallel Server
In preparation for the workshop all attendees are encouraged to obtain an account on Agave if they do not already have one: https://cores.research.asu.edu/research-computing/get-started/create-an-account
