Batch Simulation in Simulink

In Simulink, batch simulation means to submit jobs to run simulations on MATLAB workers, and subsequently access to the results of these simulations. You can now easily run your Simulink in parallel simulations in batch mode with the batchsim command.

In this example, we'll use the basic parsim command to do a parameter sweep of a vehicle suspension model. Once the simulation starts, the MATLAB Command Window stays busy. You will not be able to use the Command Window for other tasks until the simulation is done. If you close your MATLAB, you will lose your simulation data.

Let's simply change a parsim into batchsim, specify the pool size, and rerun the simulation. Now, the MATLAB Command Window will be free, and you can continue with your other work. You can close MATLAB or even your computer, without losing simulation data.

Once you restart MATLAB, you can use the Job Monitor conveniently to find a job and monitor its status. When your simulation is finished, you can either use the Job Monitor or [? Command ?] [? 9 ?] to fetch outputs for further processing.
