We are developing the ‘Protein Explorer ’ system, a petaflops special-purpose computer system for molecular dynamics simulations. The Protein Explorer is a PC cluster equipped with...
An 8.61 Tflop/s Molecular Dynamics Simulation for NaCl with a Special-Purpose Computer (2001)
Tetsu Narumi, Atsushi Kawai, Takahiro Koishi, High Performance, Biocomputing Team
We performed molecular dynamics (MD) simulation of 33 million pairs of NaCl ions with the Ewald summation and obtained a calculation speed of 8.61 Tflop/s. In this calculation we used a...
