Can we use parfor inside a for loop?

Can a parfor loop be used in side a for loop. I want to run a series of iterations with parfor inside the for loop. How to do this?

Sure!

matlabpool open 2
for ii = 1:3
  parfor jj = 1:3
      disp([ jj ii])
  end
end
matlabpool close

If you have multiple nested for loop, then for best performance you really want the parfor to be the outermost loop in your program.
