Run MATLAB Functions with Distributed Arrays

Hundreds of functions in MATLAB® and other toolboxes are enhanced so that they operate on distributed

arrays.

D = distributed(gallery('lehmer',n));

e = eig(D);

If any of the input arguments to these distributed-enabled functions is a distributed

array, their output arrays are distributed, unless returning MATLAB data is more appropriate (for example, numel).

Distributed arrays are well suited for large mathematical computations, such as large

problems of linear algebra. You can also use distributed arrays for big data processing.

For more information on distributing arrays, see Distributing Arrays to Parallel Workers.Check Distributed Array Support in Functions

If a MATLAB function has distributed array support, you can consult additional

distributed array usage information on its function page. See Distributed

Arrays in the Extended Capabilities section at

the end of the function page.

Tip

For a filtered list of all MATLAB functions that support distributed arrays, see Function List (Distributed

Arrays).

You can browse functions that support distributed arrays from all MathWorks® products at the following link: All Functions List (Distributed

Arrays). Alternatively, you can filter by product. On the

Help bar, click Functions. In the

function list, browse the left pane to select a product, for example, MATLAB. At the bottom of the left pane, select Distributed

Arrays. If you select a product that does not have

distributed-enabled functions, then the Distributed Arrays

filter is not available.

For information about updates to individual distributed-enabled functions, see the

release notes.

To check support for sparse distributed arrays, consult the following

section.
