How can i remove matlabpool('open',2) with parpool?

Hello everybody,

I have MATLAB R2015b and I try to replicate a given code, but it does not work since the command matlabpool has been removed and I am not familiar with the suggest parpool command. How can I rewrite the code so that it will work? Thank you all for your help!

This is my code:

format short

matlabpool('open',2);
qe=[0.90;0.95;0.99];

tic;

m=2000;
T=200;              
swindow0=40;         
r0=swindow0/T;  
dim=T-swindow0+1;

y=DGP(T,m);

gsadf=ones(m,1);  
parfor j=1:m; 
    sadfs=zeros(dim,1); 
    for r2=swindow0:1:T;
        dim0=r2-swindow0+1;
        rwadft=zeros(dim0,1);
        for r1=1:1:dim0; 
            rwadft(r1)= ADF_FL(y(r1:r2,j),0,1);  % two tail 5% significant level
        end;  
        sadfs(r2-swindow0+1)=max(rwadft);
    end;
    gsadf(j)=max(sadfs);
end;

toc;
matlabpool('close');

quantile_gsadf=quantile(gsadf,qe);

filename = 'CV_GSADF_200_02.xlsx';
xlswrite(filename,gsadf,1,'A1:A2000');

disp([qe quantile_gsadf]);

p = parpool('local', 2);

and then later

delete(p);

Answer 2

[eugenio bedeschi]

Hello, I'm a beginner, experiencing the same problem: I replaced """matlabpool('open',2); and matlabpool('close');""" with """p = parpool('local', 2); and delete(p);""" but now the code stops at y=DGP(T,m); : mathlab tells me it's undefined, I've searched the internet, but no answer. Can you help me?

Thank you
