MATLAB is one of the most widely used mathematical computing environments in technical computing. It is an interactive environment that provides high performance computational routines and an easy-to-use, C-like scripting language. Mathworks, the company that develops MATLAB, currently does not provide a version of MATLAB that can utilize parallel computing. This has led to academic and commercial efforts outside Mathworks to build a parallel MATLAB, using a variety of approaches. In a survey, 26 parallel MATLAB projects utilizing four different approaches have been identified. MATLAB*P is one of the 26 projects. It makes use of the backend support approach. This approach provides parallelism to MATLAB programs by relaying MATLAB commands to a parallel backend. The main difference between MATLAB*P and other projects that make use of the same approach is in its focus. MATLAB*P aims to provide a user-friendly supercomputing environment in which parallelism is achieved transparently through the use of objected oriented programming features in MATLAB. One advantage of this approach is that existing scripts can be run in parallel with no or minimal modifications. This paper describes MATLAB*P 2.0, which is a complete rewrite of MATLAB*P. This new version brings together the backend support approach with embarrassingly parallel and MPI approaches to provide the first complete parallel MATLAB framework. |
