Parallel Computing with MATLAB Part II: Scaling up to the GWDG Scientific Compute Cluster

Content

Are you curious about speeding up your computations with MATLAB? Join us for this hands-on workshop to learn how to scale your applications to the GWDG Scientific Compute Cluster (GWDG SCC).

This workshop will focus on best practices for scaling MATLAB Code to the GWDG Scientific Compute Cluster. Attendees will learn how to configure MATLAB to submit jobs to the cluster, best practices for optimizing job submission as well as troubleshooting and debugging.

About the Presenter:

Damian Pietrus is Parallel Computing Application Engineer. He has a BA from Harvard University, and he joined MathWorks in July of 2017 working in front-line support before joining the Parallel Team in late 2019. Damian's focus is on integrating MATLAB Parallel Server with various HPC environments and helping users to take advantage of these expanded computing resources.

Requirements

• This workshop is for researchers who are familiar with MATLAB and basic parallel programming constructs like parfor. The workshop will be held in English. For the practical exercises participants will receive course accounts to access the GWDG Scientific Compute Cluster. You will need a local installation of MATLAB on your laptop to submit jobs to the cluster. Please install:
  • MATLAB R2023b
  • Parallel Computing Toolbox
• If you need help with the setup or do not have access to a MATLAB license, please contact Franziska Albers in German or English.

Learning goal

• Participants will be able to scale their MATLAB computations to the cluster.
