Coming Soon: Research in a Cloud

Graphic processing units (GPU) provide an impressive amount of computer power at an unprecedented low cost. The authors describe the main features of HOOMD (highly optimized object oriented molecular dynamics), a software package that makes molecular dynamics simulations on GPUs available to general users. Also, a news sidebar by Joshua A. Anderson and Alex Travesset on Molecular Dynamics on Graphic Processing Units: HOOMD to the Rescue.
