I think that MATLAB is a great platform on which to do High Performance Computing (HPC) and take any opportunity I can to teach or demonstrate this. Such an opportunity came up recently when I was... read more >>

Back in 2021, Loren Shure posted an article that introduced the first page-wise matrix functions in MATLAB: A page-wise matrix multiply pagemtimes, along with page-wise transpose pagetranspose, and... read more >>

Yesterday morning, I overheard my kids talking about a tic/toc ban which surprised me because they are not MATLAB users and not particularly well connected at MathWorks. How would they know about... read more >>

Late last year I introduced the new solution framework for solving Ordinary Differential Equations (ODEs) that made its debut in MATLAB R2023b. I demonstrated how it allowed users to do all kinds of... read more >>

Few things say 'MATLAB' better than the backslash. So good, we put it on a T-shirt.As most people will be aware, the backslash operator solves a system of linear equations. That is, it finds the x... read more >>

14th March is Pi Day, celebrated by geeks everywhere and a great excuse for technical computing bloggers to publish something tenuously related to pi and their favorite technology of choice. This is... read more >>

Up to 3.7x faster Matrix-Matrix multiplication, 2x faster LU factorisation, 1.7x faster Cholesky decomposition and the potential for many more speed-ups across different areas of linear algebra in... read more >>

I was recently working with a researcher who had to sort arrays of double precision numbers thousands of times. In his application, however, he didn't need the full sorted list. He only wanted the... read more >>

More Compute, More Problems When it comes to High Performance Computing resources, I'm a lucky guy. I've got a fairly decent, 8 core desktop along with guest access to a reasonable number of... read more >>

Sometime in 2021, I was doing some High Performance Computing (HPC) consultancy with a university in the south of England. This involved various things such as getting the code to scale across... read more >>
