Dear John,
Parallel computation can be performed with the Parallel Computing Toolbox from Mathworks. To obtain the list of all the toolboxes on your license, can be done by typing 'ver' in your MATLAB prompt.
Here is an example how a code could look like:
tic
A = round(rand(3, 3, 3)*10);
parfor k = 1:3
B(k,:,:)=inv(squeeze(A(1,:,:)));
end
toc
Note: for small computations the for command is faster then the parfor command. However if large calculations are performed, parfor will be faster .
Kind regards, Christiaan
