I have designed a GUI using MATLAB GUIDE. I need to execute two timer functions in parallel. Let's say we have a timer and its function defined inside the GUI as follows:

handles.data_acq_tmr = timer(...
    'ExecutionMode', 'fixedRate', ...
    'Period', 0.2, ...
    'Busymode','queue',...
    'TimerFcn', {@data_read, hObject});
function data_read(~,~,hObject,~)
handles = guidata(hObject);
% do some processing here
guidata(hObject,handles);

and the second timer as follows:

handles.dataproc_tmr = timer(...
    'ExecutionMode', 'singleShot', ...
    'StartDelay', 0,...
    'Busymode','queue',...
    'TimerFcn', {@data_proc, hObject});
function data_proc(~,~,hObject,~)
handles = guidata(hObject);
% do some other processing here
guidata(hObject,handles);

Is there any way to do it in MATLAB for instance using Parallel Computing Toolbox?

RZM - what are the callbacks for your timers doing? Are they performing complex and/or expensive operations?

One reads the data transferred from another computer, and the other one does some processing on a sequence of recorded data including filtering, and some expensive operations on multiple variables. There are some other timers to control the presentation of some visual stimuli on the screen.

Use parfeval in the parallel computing toolbox to asynchronously run the computationally expensive algorithmic (not gui updates etc.) part in the background. Use a timer to poll the job for when its state is "finished" for when it's done to update the user interface.

Thank you Sean, I still cannot figure out what to do.

Hello, @RZM,

By any chance, you understood how to rezolve your problem? I have something similar :)
