Parallel Matlab

By default Matlab on Viper will run on a single core as mutli-threading conflicts with the schedulers resource management, however there are three ways in which Matlab can utilise multiple processors:

Multi-threading

Matlab can use multiple threads for certain built in functions for example linear algebra and numerical functions such as fft, \ (mldivide), eig, svd, and sort. These functions automatically execute on multiple computational threads in a single MATLAB session, allowing them to execute faster on multicore-enabled machines. Additionally, many functions in Image Processing Toolbox are multithreaded

Parallel Computing Toolbox

The Parallel Computing Toolbox allows you to open a number of workers (separate Matlab engines) on the local node, up to the number of cores on that node (28 for standard nodes in an exclusive session).

>> parpool('local',28)
Starting parallel pool (parpool) using the 'local' profile ... connected to 28 workers.

ans = 

 Pool with properties: 

            Connected: true
           NumWorkers: 28
              Cluster: local
        AttachedFiles: {}
          IdleTimeout: 30 minute(s) (30 minutes remaining)
          SpmdEnabled: true

Distributed Computing Toolbox

The distributed computing toolbox is not currently supported on Viper
