MATLAB Training 2005

To help familiarize UAF users with MATLAB®, a versatile high-level computing language, ARSC hosted a two separate one-day training session taught by Khagendra Gupta, a certified trainer from Mathworks, the company behind MATLAB®. The session was open to ARSC users and the UAF community.

The day-long session covered many aspects of this very useful pre- and post-processing tool. Topics included plotting and visualization of data and using MATLAB® variables and functions for integrating MATLAB®-based algorithms with external applications and languages such as C, C++, Fortran, Java, COM and Microsoft Excel.

MATLAB® can be used in a variety of ARSC environments. It is easily used on the new Cray XD1TM, Nelchina; the IBM Power4TM p690+/p655+, Iceberg; the IBM p690+ Regatta, Iceflyer; multiple Linux Workstations and the Macintosh systems in the ARSC classroom.

Users quickly filled the 24 available seats for the August session, prompting ARSC to schedule a second session for early November, 2005. ARSC will continue to provide access to technical and training resources in the future
