MATLAB Example

As an example for a MATLAB job, we are calculating the determinant of a 3x3 Matrix.

[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$cat matrix_determinant.m
A = [1 -2 4; -5 2 0; 1 0 3]
d = det(A)
[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$module load new matlab/9.1
[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$bsub -n 1 -W 1:00 -R "rusage[mem=512]" "matlab -nodisplay -nojvm -singleCompThread -r matrix_determinant"
MATLAB job.
Job <30576749> is submitted to queue <normal.4h>.
[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$bjobs

[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$grep -A9 "A =" lsf.o30576749
A =

1    -2     4
-5     2     0
1     0     3

d =

[sfux@eu-login-01-ng ~]$

The output of the MATLAB calculation can be found in the LSF log file lsf.o30576749.
