I would like to run MATLAB on Intel Atom but am not sure whether MATLAB is supported on this processor.

Hi Yashar,
Both IP Core Generation and FPGA Turnkey workflows can help you prototype your Simulink/MATLAB algorithm on FPGA/SoC boards.
IP Core Generation workflow adopts the IP-centric design methodology. You can generate your own custom HDL IP core from your Simulink/MATLAB algorithm. This custom IP core is sharable and reusable, and also comes with a generated IP core report.
You can then integrate the generated IP core into a larger design in FPGA design tools such as Altera Qsys, or Xilinx Vivado/IP Integrator. You can also register your Vivado/Qsys project as a custom reference design, so the IP Core Generation workflow can help you integrate the IP core into the reference design automatically.
FPGA Turnkey workflow does not use the IP-centric design methodology. Instead, it generates the HDL codes for the whole FPGA design, including the algorithm HDL code, the FPGA top level wrapper HDL code, and FPGA Pin mapping constraints, so you can run your algorithm on standard alone FPGA board. FPGA Turnkey workflow targets FPGA boards only, it does not support Zynq/Altera SoC boards
Thanks, Wang
MATLAB has not been qualified on Intel Atom processor for R2008b or the Student Version R2009a.
The list of system requirements for the current release is available at:
<http://www.mathworks.com/support/sysreq/current_release/>The Atom processor is an x86 chip from Intel that can run standard operating systems like Windows and Linux. As such, we do not expect any fundamental problems.
That said, the Atom processor targets netbooks and similarly ultra-low-end PCs that are designed with the email-and-browser-only user specifically in mind. As such, we have not formally qualified Atom. If you encounter a problem, we will not be in a position to assist.
Additional confusion may arise if you endeavor to run 64-bit MATLAB, as it appears Intel 64 support is available on some Atoms, but not others. You need to choose your core with caution and we would be unable to offer guidance.
We evaluate the supported platforms each release cycle. System requirements for MATLAB 7.8 (R2009a) did not formally support the Atom processor at release time. However, it has been since qualified for the Professional Version of MATLAB 7.9 (R2009a) and our system requirements page has been updated to include it.
