Description

From the OpenMM web site: OpenMM is an extensible library that enables accelerated calculations for molecular dynamics on high-performance computer architectures, currently for high-end NVIDIA and ATI GPU cards. OpenMM provides tools for modern molecular modeling simulation. As a library it can be hooked into any code, allowing that code to do molecular modeling with minimal extra coding. Moreover, OpenMM has a strong emphasis on hardware acceleration, thus providing not just a consistent API, but much greater performance than what one could get from just about any other code available.

Modules

Before using OpenMM libraries with your code, you must first set up your environment properly. Here are the required module files:

  • apps/openmm/6.1

To use OpenMM on the cluster, ensure that you use module add prior to using any executables. See Modules for more information.
