This section discusses the requirements and configurations for your network
to support parallel computing.
Plan Your Network L ayout
Generally, it is easy to decide which machines will run worker processes and
which will run client processes. Worker se ssio ns usually run on the cluster of
machines dedicated to that purpose. The MATLAB client session usually runs
where MATLAB programs are run, often on a user’s desktop.
The job manager process should run on a stable machine, with adequate
resources to manage the number of tasks and amount of data expected in
your parallel computing applications.
The following table sho ws what products and processes are nee de d for each of
these roles in the parallel computing configuration.
