How to access MATLAB installed on a server?

Question

A pretty basic question. The MATLAB is installed on a linux based server. I have windows 7 installed on my system. I want to access MATLAB, how do i do that?

Shall i install some virtual machine or is there a simpler way? Please help.

Thanks.

Answer 1

MATLAB will run on Windows 7, so you could just install it on your Win7 machine. The other more complicated route would be to run a VNC client on the Win7 box and a matching server on the Linux side. Then you can have access to the remote linux desktop from Win7.
