The newest version of matlab is installed on all the cluster nodes (and is the default version). There is no license manager requirement, therefore more than one person can use matlab at a time.
to run a job using matlab through qsub you need to change to the directory where your script is, then: matlab -nodisplay < yourscriptname.m
your script needs to have the paths completed before execution (using a search/replace routine in some scripting language), this needs to include the evaluated path from your $EXPERIMENT/Analysis/ETC variable.
Also, the 64bit version of the BIAC tools are located here: /usr/local/packages/MATLAB/BIAC
to use them, add run /usr/local/packages/MATLAB/BIAC/startup.m
to the first line of your matlab script.
