MATLAB R2013b and R2014a have been crashing frequently when used in Mac OS X for various reasons:
a) Sometimes it happens when plugging/unplugging external monitors or displays
b) Sometimes it happens after the computer wakes from or the screen saves goes off.
At times I noticed the crash would not happen right away after any of the above events, but would happen a little after when I would open a new figure, execute code, etc.
The crash produces the following log:
