Run different functions in different workers with MAtlab

how to run two matlab function same time

Hello Everyone.

I´m computing a FDTD simulator to study the radio channel characteristics using power delay profile. I use a scenario 2550px x 2550px and I need more than 2 hours to have some kind of results. I´m reading about parallel computing with parallel computing toolbox and I tried some stuff...without good results...

Tried to use spmd with drange-for inside some functions, because I have a function that is the more important in the all simulator, that have a for inside other for (3 times separately) and I did some thing like this:

function .....

(same procedure for the 3 cases)
%case 1
spmd
drange-for
drange-for
%function body with array operations
end
end
end

with this solution my simulation became slower. I think that is because spmd replicated this exactly same code for the 4 workers that I create with the matlabpool.

Then I tried to use codistributor arrays with the same solution said before...nothing...

I think that I need a solution please... to use just one computer with multi-core.
What I exactly need is a solution that permit different function be computed at same time with no replicated code and that workin parallel for example like.

%main file

function1 -> worker 1
function2 -> worker 2
function3 -> worker 3

running at same time.

Or for example the first situation described with the for stuff but like:

%worker 1
for
for
end
end

%worker 2
for
for
end
end

%worker 3
for
for
end
end

Which will working in parallel and the simulator, I suppose that become quicker....

I appreciate help.

Thank you very much
