I've never used the distributed computing engine, but bash / python scripts work pretty well. Here's a crude first attempt I used a long time ago: http://phiwave.sourceforge.net/howto_parallel/ Given the advantages of python for this kind of job (free, good OO model, well-developed parallel stuff, ability to call matlab), that's the way I'm planning to go. I would be happy to hear from anyone interested as a spur to get writing. See you, Matthew
