How to run multiple different scripts in parallel ?

Hi,

I am trying to paralellize a large job and the best solution I can think of so far is to break it up in several different scripts and send each script to a different core. Since I can't find any information in the documentation about how to acomplish this I need to ask for help. The idea is something like this:

matlabpool open local 4

Send each of the following: script1.m, script2.m, script3.m and script4.m to a separate core for a simultaneous execution

matlabpool close

Now my question is how should the code look like in between the two matalbpool statements except the code for the four scripts ?

Thank You in advance.

One way to do it

matlabpool open local 4

spmd
    switch labindex
        case 1
            script1
        case 2
            script2
        case 3
            script3
        case 4
            script4
    end
end
matlabpool close
