how run two codes at the same time from GUI?

*Hi,

How I can open two copies of matlab in my computer automatically.

In fact, I have two codes I would to run it at the same time. What I need is running the two codes in parallel from GUI automatically.

 I need when press the a button, the two codes are running  at the same time together.

Thanks*

The best you can probably sensibly do is just use parallel computing.

Something like

 parfor i = 1:2
  if i == 1
   result(i) = runcode1(input(1))
  else
   result(i) = runcode2(input(2))
  end
 end

thanks I think this code do not run the two functions at the same time. Right?

I think , two workers have to work together , hence two windows have to be opened. please, I need more help Anyway, I try my two functions:

parfor i = 1:2
  if i == 1
        result(i) = seq_alignment();
  else
        result(i) = seq_alignment_c();
  end
 end

this is what I got %%%%%% In an assignment A(I) = B, the number of elements in B and I must be the same.

Error in ==> phd>(parfor body) at 98 result(i) = seq_alignment_c();

Error in ==> parallel_function at 475 consume(base, limit, F(base, limit));

Error in ==> phd>pushbutton11_Callback at 92 parfor i = 1:2

Error in ==> gui_mainfcn at 96 feval(varargin{:});

Error in ==> phd at 42 gui_mainfcn(gui_State, varargin{:});

Error in ==> @(hObject,eventdata)phd('pushbutton11_Callback',hObject,eventdata,guidata(hObject))

??? Error while evaluating uicontrol Callback

Thank u so much it is working now and the time is less I just add matlabpool open local 2

I just want to ask if I can show the processing in two windows(2 workers) because I show it in one window.

thanks
