Internal error - Trace Trap

Hi,

I ran a program that is computationally challenging. After an hour of simulation, an error message pops up saying the following. Please help me to figure out if this error is a result of internal crash or a programming error.

MATLAB crash <file:/Users/ssrini56m/matlab_crash_dump.13020-1>:
