A method and system is disclosed for providing a distributed technical computing environment for distributing technical computing tasks from a technical computing client to technical computing workers for execution of the tasks on one or more computers systems. Tasks can be defined on a technical computing client, and the tasks organized into jobs. The technical computing client can directly distribute tasks to one or more technical computing workers. Furthermore, the technical computing client can submit tasks, or jobs comprising tasks, to an automatic task distribution mechanism that distributes the tasks automatically to one or more technical computing workers providing technical computing services. The technical computing worker performs technical computing of tasks and the results of the execution of tasks may be provided to the technical computing client.

Methods and system for registering callbacks and distributing tasks to technical computing works

The present invention enables customized technical computing within a database. The present invention provides a method and system to insert a software function implemented in a technical computing environment into a database to manipulate data and use the software function as a database procedure. Once the software function is generated, in response to a single action being performed, two components are generated and stored in the database. The two components working together allow the software function to be invoked as a database procedure. The present invention offloads a user's burden to learn the often complicated database query language and decreases the amount of network traffic between a client computer and a database.
