can we use multitasking on matlab

Hello, I saw that by using parallel programming (PCT) on a local machine, the max number of labs that can be created is the number of cores.

Using the multi-agent systems, we can create multiple agents working together and interacting with each other. I want to know if it is possible to do this on matlab, ie creating multiple threads (eg 50).

These agents must share a single processor time (work by turns).

Thank you.

You can run up to 12 local workers (assuming R2013b) simultaneously using Parallel Computing Toolbox. You need to modify the local cluster profile to change the number of workers from the default (which is the number of cores on your machine).

Yes I can obtain 12 local workers. Can I have more cluster than 12?

You will need parallel-computing Tool box

Thanks for answer Yes, but with parallel-computing Tool box, The number of labs I can creat is number of cores of my machine. I wan partage time processor for several threads.
