[Scilab-users] GPU in Scilab
I had wanted to try some GPU code in Scilab... from http://wiki.scilab.org/Documentation/ParallelComputingInScilab stacksize('max'); // Init host data (CPU) A = rand(1000,1000); B = rand(1000,1000); C = rand(1000,1000); // Set host data on the Device (GPU) dA = gpuSetData(A); dC = gpuSetData(C); d1 = gpuMult(A,B); d2 = gpuMult(dA,dC); d3 = gpuMult(d1,d2); result = gpuGetData(d3); // Get result on host // Free device memory dA = gpuFree(dA); dC = gpuFree(dC); d1 = gpuFree(d1); d2 = gpuFree(d2); d3 = gpuFree(d3); even after installation of CUDA Toolkit 6.5, as shown in the screen capture below, it says: atomsLoad: An error occurred while loading 'sciGPGPU-2.0-0': Please install CUDA Toolkit 3.2 or more.

Hello, I found a solution for this problem : At then end of the button 1 callback, I save all variables on my disk with save function At the beginning of button 2 callback, I load these variables. -- View this message in context: http://mailinglists.scilab.org/Gui-load-data-inside-a-function-and-keep-them-tp4031327p4031428.html Sent from the Scilab users - Mailing Lists Archives mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ users mailing list users@lists.scilab.org http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Scilab-users] GPU in Scilab
Hi, The problem is that Nvidia have change the environment variable. I've two solutions for you : First, try to add new enviromnent variable named CUDA_BIN_PATH with value %CUDA_PATH%\bin but sciGPGPU have been build with cuda toolkit v4.0, so this will fix the error about toolkit version but you could have an other link error. Second, you should try to install cuda toolkit v4.0. You can have multiple cuda toolkit installed in your system. regards, Le mercredi 22 octobre 2014 à 23:52 -0700, tanthiamhuat a écrit : I had wanted to try some GPU code in Scilab... from http://wiki.scilab.org/Documentation/ParallelComputingInScilab stacksize('max'); // Init host data (CPU) A = rand(1000,1000); B = rand(1000,1000); C = rand(1000,1000); // Set host data on the Device (GPU) dA = gpuSetData(A); dC = gpuSetData(C); d1 = gpuMult(A,B); d2 = gpuMult(dA,dC); d3 = gpuMult(d1,d2); result = gpuGetData(d3); // Get result on host // Free device memory dA = gpuFree(dA); dC = gpuFree(dC); d1 = gpuFree(d1); d2 = gpuFree(d2); d3 = gpuFree(d3); even after installation of CUDA Toolkit 6.5, as shown in the screen capture below, it says: atomsLoad: An error occurred while loading 'sciGPGPU-2.0-0': Please install CUDA Toolkit 3.2 or more.

Re: [Scilab-users] Saving and Loading big data

Now, being able to save all the environment variables, I'm experiencing the next problem when there is a lot of data to be saved/loaded. The first one to have problems is the load function. My script created several (aprox 200) big matrices and when they are saved they produce a 850MB file. The save function works well in this case, but when I try to load the variables back again scilab runs out of memory as shown below. If the scripts creates even bigger matrices, scilab can handle them, but when I try calling save it does not work (also the problematic code below). Scilab can handle these big matrices, but is there anything I can do to make a reliable backup of them? For example increasing scilab's stacksize even more (which it states its maximum is 268435455, but my PC has more RAM can be used). Or using save/load in a more efficient way so that they don't require so much extra memory in the stack. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks you very much! Code samples Hi, I experienced similar issues when trying to save/load big data. 1) save/load do not seem to be really efficient and it looks like they create copies of variables to save/load. As a result, if a matrix uses more than 50% of the available stack, load tend to fail: %%% --n=2250,a=zeros(n,n);s=stacksize();s(2)/s(1) n = 2250. ans = 0.5071616 % a is using a bit more than 50% of the stack --save('/tmp/a.sod','a') %val=[a; !--error 17 stack size exceeded!

Re: [Scilab-users] Saving and Loading big data
For information, I filled a bug about 'load' crashing scilab when trying to load a big matrix from a sod file: http://bugzilla.scilab.org/show_bug.cgi?id=13641 Cheers, Antoine ___ users mailing list users@lists.scilab.org http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Scilab-users] Saving and Loading big data
Thanks Antoine! yes, that is exactly the problem I'm experiencing. For the time being, I'm trying to do some ugly stuff with 'listvarinfile' and 'eval' to load variables one by one. Same for the save, saving variables into different files one by one helps (not if the problematic variable is only one of course). Hope this gets solved soon or I will have to move to another platform (maybe ROOT) to handle big data.

[Scilab-users] ?E embedded scilab function in XCOS
Hello, I am looking to reflect in XCOS (Scilab 5.5.1) the Simulink EML block. I cannot find a way to include embedded scilab code. I see a scilab function can be called if it is loaded into the workspace, but this isn't quite what I'm looking for. Does there exist a way to include embedded scilab code in XCOS? It looks like my question might be answered here; unfortunately I can't read German. http://www.gomatlab.de/embedded-function-block-in-scicos-scilab-t14301.html Candio -- View this message in context: http://mailinglists.scilab.org/E-embedded-scilab-function-in-XCOS-tp4031434.html Sent from the Scilab users - Mailing Lists Archives mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ___ users mailing list users@lists.scilab.org http://lists.scilab.org/mailman/listinfo/users
Re: [Scilab-users] ?E embedded scilab function in XCOS
The scifun_block (in the user defined functions palette) may be what you are looking for.

Re: [Scilab-users] Iterator in XCOS?
Hello, I don't understand the solution to this question. It appears the for/while iterator blocks have been removed in XCOS; however I don't understand the proposed work-around. Can you please clarify?
