Patent number: 9514413Abstract: In an embodiment, information for use in identifying a plurality of sub-solvers may be acquired. The plurality of sub-solvers may be used in a first attempt to find at least one solution to a problem that may be defined in the acquired information. At least two of the sub-solvers in the plurality of sub-solvers may be of different sub-solver types. The sub-solvers may be identified based on the acquired information. One or more starting points for the identified sub-solvers may be identified and transferred to the identified sub-solvers. One or more outputs, that indicate one or more results associated with the first attempt to find at least one solution to the problem, may be acquired from the identified sub-solvers. One or more sub-solvers may be identified, based on the acquired one or more outputs, for use in a second attempt to find at least one solution to the problem.Type: GrantFiled: May 1, 2015Date of Patent: December 6, 2016Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Derya B. Ozyurt, Paul Kerr-Delworth, Roy E. Lurie

Patent number: 9507634Abstract: A method and system is disclosed for providing a distributed technical computing environment for distributing technical computing tasks from a technical computing client to technical computing workers for execution of the tasks on one or more computers systems. Tasks can be defined on a technical computing client, and the tasks organized into jobs. The technical computing client can directly distribute tasks to one or more technical computing workers. Furthermore, the technical computing client can submit tasks, or jobs comprising tasks, to an automatic task distribution mechanism that distributes the tasks automatically to one or more technical computing workers providing technical computing services. The technical computing worker performs technical computing of tasks and the results of the execution of tasks may be provided to the technical computing client.Type: GrantFiled: April 30, 2014Date of Patent: November 29, 2016Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Matthew A. Shawver, Jocelyn Luke Martin, Roy E. Lurie, Loren P. Dean, Cleve B. Moler, Eugene F. Mcgoldrick

Patent number: 9075916Abstract: A device may obtain first program code, and may cause the first program code to be executed. The device may determine a first execution state generated based on causing the first program code to be executed. The device may store the first execution state. The device may obtain second program code that includes a modification to the first program code, and may cause the second program code to be executed. The device may determine a second execution state generated based on causing the second program code to be executed. The device may store the second execution state. The device may receive an indication to restore the first execution state, and may restore the first execution state based on receiving the indication.Type: GrantFiled: November 21, 2013Date of Patent: July 7, 2015Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Joseph R. Bienkowski, Roy E. Lurie

Patent number: 8832668Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer-readable medium may include computer-executable instructions for dynamic symbolic math engine selection. The instructions, when executed by a processor, may cause the processor to: dynamically select a first symbolic math engine from two or more symbolic math engines; convert a first symbolic command from a standard format into a first format compatible with the first symbolic math engine; pass the first converted command to the first symbolic math engine for executing; receive an error from the first symbolic math engine from executing the first converted command; convert the first symbolic command from the standard format into a second format compatible with a second symbolic math engine based on the error received from first symbolic math engine, wherein the second symbolic math engine is selected from the two or more symbolic math engines; and pass the second converted command to the second symbolic math engine for executing.Type: GrantFiled: May 10, 2013Date of Patent: September 9, 2014Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Benjamin Hinkle, Pieter Mosterman, Mary Ann Branch Freeman, Roy E. Lurie

Patent number: 8707280Abstract: A computing device-implemented method includes receiving a program, analyzing and transforming the program, determining an inner context and an outer context of the program based on the analysis of the program, and allocating one or more portions of the inner context of the program to two or more labs for parallel execution. The method also includes receiving one or more results associated with the parallel execution of the one or more portions from the two or more labs, and providing the one or more results to the outer context of the program.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2012Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Halldor N Stefansson, Brett Baker, Edric Ellis, Joseph F Hicklin, John N Little, Jocelyn Luke Martin, Piotr R Luszczek, Nausheen B Moulana, Loren Dean, Roy E.

Patent number: 8707281Abstract: One or more computer-readable media store executable instructions that, when executed by processing logic, perform parallel processing. The media store one or more instructions for initiating a single programming language, and identifying, via the single programming language, one or more data distribution schemes for executing a program. The media also store one or more instructions for transforming, via the single programming language, the program into a parallel program with an optimum data distribution scheme selected from the one or more identified data distribution schemes, and allocating the parallel program to two or more labs for parallel execution. The media further store one or more instructions for receiving one or more results associated with the parallel execution of the parallel program from the two or more labs, and providing the one or more results to the program.Type: GrantFiled: July 23, 2012Date of Patent: April 22, 2014Assignee: The MathWorks, Inc.Inventors: Piotr R.
