Overview
This one-day workshop will introduce attendees to submitting parallel computing jobs with MATLAB on CINECA’s pre-exascale HPC cluster, Leonardo. Participants will learn how to solve compute- and data-intensive problems using Leonardo’s multicore processors and GPUs. Through hands-on exercises, attendees will gain experience accessing Leonardo, configuring and submitting MATLAB jobs, and retrieving results using MATLAB. By working through common scenarios for parallelizing MATLAB algorithms, participants will develop a solid understanding of parallel computing with MATLAB on HPC clusters and learn best practices.
Key Points
• Accessing MATLAB on the CINECA Leonardo HPC Cluster
• Submitting jobs from a local machine to the CINECA Leonardo HPC Cluster
• Configuring the Parallel Cluster via the local MATLAB GUI
• Remote access and job submission through the local MATLAB GUI
Target audience:
This course is intended for scientific university students, PhD candidates, and researchers. Anyone who meets the prerequisites is welcome to apply. This includes Masters and PhD students, postdoctoral researchers, and other scientists.
Prerequisites
• University-level education (or higher) in a scientific domain
• Foundational knowledge of MATLAB (start here)
• Beginner to advanced experience with MATLAB parallel computing (watch this recording)
• Affiliation with at least one Italian institute
• Good knowledge of English
Mandatory!!
Attendees need to bring their own laptop (see system requirements) with following programs installed
· One of the following MATLAB releases: R2024a, R2024b, R2025a
