Matlab compiler runtime

Description
	Matlab Compiler Runtime for running applications built with the Matlab compiler.
Site	Version (Latest: v1.2)	Notes
		Not currently available. Please check licensing rules
Matlab compiled code picks up some information - such as expected library versions - on the system used to build it. The system running the code must have the dependent libraries available.

License

The Matlab Compiler Runtime is made available by Mathworks for users with a valid license to produce executable versions of Matlab applications that can run independently.

The licensing conditions are complicated and differ for site and floating licenses. It is the users responsibility to determine whether these conditions have been met.

Users of this application should credit the code authors and the NGS accordingly and where applicable the specific site where the code is installed, when publishing work using NGS resources.

Running the Application on the NGS (General)

The NGS provides a script /usr/ngs/MATLAB-COMPILER-RUNTIME_version_arch that will create a suitable environment for the Matlab application. This can be used in place of the run_* script that is generated by the Matlab compiler

• Submission Using the UI/WMS

  To submit a matlab MCR job via the WMS, login to the UI and create a JDL file as below, replacing your ngs ID on the UI for ngsxxxx, then submit using:

    glite-wms-job-submit -o jobIDs -a mcr.jdl

  Type = "Job";
  JobType = "normal";
  Executable = "/usr/ngs/MATLAB-COMPILER-RUNTIME_R2008a_glnx86"; 
  Arguments = "mcr-app args"; 
  StdOutput = "std.out"; 
  StdError = "std.err"; 
  Myproxyserver= "myproxy.ngs.ac.uk"; 
  InputSandbox = {"mcr-app"}; 
  InputSandboxBaseURI = "gsiftp://ngsui03.ngs.ac.uk:2811/home/ngsxxxx/mcr"; 
  OutputSandbox = {"std.err","output","std.out"}; 
  OutputSandboxBaseDestURI = "gsiftp://ngsui03.ngs.ac.uk:2811/home/ngsxxxx/mcr"; 
  Requirements = (      
       member("NGS-UEE-MATLAB-COMPILER_RUNTIME_R2008a_glnx86", other.GlueHostApplicationSoftwareRunTimeEnvironment) #
  );
  ShallowRetryCount = -1;

  This example will run an executable built under a 32-bit version of Matlab R2008a under Linux

  If you require a different version of the environment, please contact support@grid-support.ac.uk

Dependencies

Executables built with the Matlab Compiler will include references to libraries from the system on which they were originally built.

This means that an executable built on, for example, a Redhat 5 based Linux system will not necessarily run on a Redhat 4 one.

Further Information

Information about the Matlab Compiler Runtime can be found on the Mathworks web site.
