Jacket v2.0 Now Available - Faster MATLAB Code

Jacket version 2.0 is now available, adding GPU computing capabilities for use with MATLAB®. Version 2.0 delivers even more speed through a host of new improvements, maximizing GPU device performance and utilization.

Notable new features include a multi-GPU interface and support for OpenCL devices. With Jacket v2.0, your M-code is now portable across all major GPU devices, including AMD/ATI, Intel, and NVIDIA chips.

Jacket is the premier GPU software plugin for MATLAB, better than alternative solutions (accelereyes.com/compare). It is relied upon by thousands of organizations for rapid prototyping and problem solving across a range of government, manufacturing, energy, media, biomedical, financial, and scientific research applications.

Multi-GPU Details:

  • Control over all GPUs in your program through simple, fast GPU selection functions. Jacket automatically handles communication between the GPU devices, without the need to launch bulky parallel computing workers
  • GINFO, GSELECT, GSYNC, are all extended to handle multiple devices

OpenCL Details:

  • Support for single precision, floating point, real, and complex types
  • Support for array math, FFTs, element-wise operations, and more
  • Selection of any OpenCL compliant device listed in GINFO
