Matlab Seminar: June 12 |
The IT Division is hosting two seminars from Mathworks on Tuesday June 12 in the Bldg 50 Auditorium. You can register with Mathworks using this link which helps us plan for the event (or just show up).
10am - Noon
Session 1: Data Analysis and Visualization with MATLAB
During this technical presentation, we will introduce specific examples to demonstrate how to acquire, analyze and visualize data through mathematical, statistical and engineering functions that support common engineering operations. We will also provide an overview of the MATLAB technical computing environment, including desktop tools for editing and debugging code, publishing your work, surface fitting, and creating graphical user interfaces (GUIs).
Highlights include:
- Importing data and images into MATLAB
- Performing statistical analysis and curve fitting
- Automating analysis via MATLAB code generation
- Developing algorithms and applications
- Building GUIs and generating reports
- Creating standalone executables
2pm - 4pm
Session 2: Parallel and GPU Computing with MATLAB
In this session you will learn how to solve computationally and data-intensive problems using multicore processors, GPUs, and computer clusters. We will introduce you to high-level programming constructs that allow you to parallelize MATLAB applications and run them on multiple processors. We will show you how to overcome the memory limits of your desktop computer by distributing your data on a large scale computing resource, such as a cluster. We will also demonstrate how to take advantage of GPUs to speed up computations without low-level programming.
Highlights include:
- Toolboxes with built-in support for parallel computing
- Creating parallel applications to speed up independent tasks
- Scaling up to computer clusters, grid environments or clouds
- Employing GPUs to speed up your computations
