PN 2: Molecular simulations with high-performance and many-core computer systems

Projektnetzwerk 2Coordinators:  Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Hans-Joachim Werner, Prof. Dr. rer. nat. Hans-Joachim Wunderlich
Research Areas: A, F
Number of projects: 12 + 1 JP seed project


The Project Network 2 ranges from hardware design to large-scale simulations of chemical and biological systems. It can be roughly divided into the following four sub-areas:

  1. New architectures of many-core computer systems and general methods for porting simulation software to such systems
  2. Parallelisation and porting electronic structure methods to many-core systems, including general-purpose graphics processor units, and development of new methods for ab initio molecular dynamics simulations
  3. QM/MM and molecular dynamics simulations of enzymatic reactions
  4. Application platforms for simulations on distributed heterogeneous resources
