This section discusses the requirements and conÞgurations for your network

to support parallel computing.

Before You Start

Before attempting to install Parallel Computing Toolbox software and

MATLAB Distributed Computing Server software, read Chapter 1,

“Introduction” to familiarize yourself with the concepts and vocabulary of

the products.

Planning Your Network Layout

Generally, it is easy to decide which machines will run worker processes and

which will run client processes. Worker sessions usually run on the cluster of

machines dedicated to that purpose. The MATLAB client session usually runs

where MATLAB programs are run, often on a user’s desktop.

The job manager process should run on a stable machine, with adequate

resources to manage the number of tasks and amount of data expected in

your parallel computing applications.

The following table shows what products and processes are needed for each of

these roles in the parallel computing conÞguration.
