Speeding Up MATLAB Applications
In this session, we will demonstrate simple ways to improve and optimize your code that can boost execution speed by orders of magnitude. We will also address common pitfalls in writing M-code, explore the use of the MATLAB Profiler to find bottlenecks, and briefly introduce the use of Parallel Computing Toolbox and MATLAB Distributed Computing Server to solve computationally and data-intensive problems on multicore computers and clusters.

Highlights include:

• Understand memory usage and vectorization in MATLAB
• Address bottlenecks in your programs
• Optimize file I/O to streamline your code
• Transition from serial to parallel MATLAB programs
• Execute applications on a single multicore or multiprocessor desktop

Introduction to Simulink
In this session, we will provide a brief overview of Simulink, an environment for multidomain simulation and model-based design for dynamic and embedded systems.

Highlights include:

• Modeling dynamic systems
• Using customizable block libraries

MATLAB License Options at the University of Rhode Island
This session will review the existing license options for faculty, staff, and students. The details of a newer license option, the Total Academic Headcount [TAH] license, will also be introduced. The TAH license option provides access to MathWorks products for an entire university campus.
