Communication between various Matlab screens?

Hi! I have several open matlabs on the same PC. Each makinga process, and I need that when one finished, this notifies the other. How could I make them communicate with each other?

You could use tcp or udp. Those are available from the instrument control toolbox or from the tcpudpip file contribution.

You could pick files that the various sessions would modify.

You could use the sharedmatrix file exchange contribution.

Some of these choices may require that the code actively check for input. Others may require that the code occasionally use drawnow to allow interrupts to be processed.

Note that code that is involved in computation with large matrices cannot be interrupted.
