You could use spmd or parfor for this, but beware that this will involve making copies of the data onto the GPUs used by the workers. For example, you could do something like this:
matrices = {rand(1000, 'gpuArray'), rand(2000, 'gpuArray')};
spmd
if labindex <= numel(matrices)
myMatrix = matrices{labindex};
myResult = max(myMatrix(:));
else
myResult = NaN;
end
end
The downside of this approach is that all elements of the cell array matrices are copied to each GPU on the workers. For this particular sort of case, parfor would involve fewer copies of data:
matrices = {rand(1000, 'gpuArray'), rand(2000, 'gpuArray')};
parfor idx = 1:numel(matrices)
matrix = matrices{idx};
result(idx) = max(matrix(:));
end
If possible, it's best to build the gpuArray in the body of your spmd or parfor block to avoid making too many copies on the GPU.
