It sounds like your kerberos tickets and afs tokens expired. By default
these last for only ten hours; you can get a new set with renew.
If you need longer lasting tickets, you can use kinit -l to specify the
lifetime; with a -r, you can make them renewable. If you go this route,
you'd need to run a script every just-less-than-ten hours, to kinit -R
(to refresh your renewable ticket) and fsid -a (to get new afs tokens
from it). The afs tokens are what actually control the access to files,
and since matlab is restricted to authenticated users, you can expect
it to behave very badly, when your tokens expire.
(There's more detailed instructions available, but that's the outline of
it. OLC can probably help you with the details.)
