gLite and MATLAB® Integration

EGEE and the NA4 activity are in close collaboration with The MathWorks™ in an effort to integrate the popular MATLAB® Parallel Computing Toolbox™ with gLite. This will give the opportunity to applications to take advantage of the combined power of MATLAB and the EGEE grid. A first level of integration has already been achieved and currently a number of selected applications are exploring the capabilities of this solution in the context of a 6-month trial period. MATLAB Distributed Computing Server™ is available from 2 production sites in EGEE. The following support material is available for the users and grid site administrators currently exploiting the grid-enabled MATLAB toolbox.

Users

• Parallel Computing with MATLAB on EGEE cluster - Users Guide (Windows, Linux/Mac)
• Hands-on examples (zip)
• gLite/MATLAB integration configuration files (MATLAB R2008a)

Developers

• Advanced tips and tricks for MATLAB developers (Developer Notes)

Site Administrators

• Administrator's Guide for installing MATLAB server on a gLite site (doc)

Support

New users, unfamiliar with gLite and Grid technologies, can get in touch with Dimitris Zilaskos for basic grid-related issues and support.

For any other inquires relating to EGEE and the MATLAB/gLite trials you may contact Vangelis Floros and Cal Loomis, from the EGEE NA4 activity.
