Description : [Biology] versatile package to perform molecular dynamics
GROMACS is a versatile package to perform molecular dynamics, i.e. simulate
the Newtonian equations of motion for systems with hundreds to millions of
particles.
It is primarily designed for biochemical molecules like proteins and lipids
that have a lot of complicated bonded interactions, but since GROMACS is
extremely fast at calculating the nonbonded interactions (that usually dominate
simulations) many groups are also using it for research on non-biological
systems, e.g. polymers.
GROMACS supports all the usual algorithms you expect from a modern molecular
dynamics implementation, (check the online reference or manual for details),
but there are also quite a few features that make it stand out from the
competition:
.
GROMACS provides extremely high performance compared to all other programs. A
lot of algorithmic optimizations have been introduced in the code; we have for
instance extracted the calculation of the virial from the innermost loops over
pairwise interactions, and we use our own software routines to calculate the
inverse square root. The innermost loops are generated automatically in either
C or Fortran at compile time, with optimizations adopted to your architecture.
Assembly loops using SSE and 3DNow! multimedia instructions are provided for
x86 processors, resulting in exceptional performance on inexpensive PC
workstations. For Pentium IV processors there are even SSE2 double precision
assembly loops, and on Power PC G4 and later processors we provide Altivec
loops both for Linux and Mac OS X. Gromacs is normally 3-10 timesfaster than
any other program; check the article in Journal of Molecular Modeling
(reference can be found under resources) for a comparison benchmark.
.
GROMACS is user-friendly, with topologies and parameter files written in clear
text format. There is a lot of consistency checking, and clear error messages
are issued when something is wrong. Since the C preprocessor is used, you can
have conditional parts in your topologies and include other files. You can even
compress most files and GROMACS will automatically pipe them through gzip upon
reading.
.
There is no scripting language - all programs use a simple interface with
command line options for input and output files. You can always get help on the
options by using the -h option, or use the extensive manuals provided free of
charge in electronic or paper format. There is also an integrated graphical
user interface available for all programs.
.
As the simulation is proceeding, GROMACS will continuously tell you how far it
has come, and what time and date it expects to be finished.
.
Both run input files and trajectories are independent of hardware endian and
can thus be read by any version GROMACS, even if it was compiled using a
different floating-point precision. All files from GROMACS 2.0 can further be
used in the new version 3!
.
GROMACS can write coordinates using lossy compression, which provides a very
compact way of storing trajectory data. The accuracy can be selected by the
user.
.
GROMACS comes with a large selection of flexible tools for trajectory analysis
- you won't have to write any code to perform routine analyses. The output is
further provided in the form of finished Xmgr/Grace graphs, with axis labels,
legends, etc. already in place!
.
A basic trajectory viewer that only requires standard X libraries is included,
and several external visualization tools can read the GROMACS file formats.
.
GROMACS can be run in parallel, using standard MPI communication.
.
GROMACS contains several state-of-the-art algorithms that make it possible to
extend the time steps is simulations significantly, and thereby further enhance
performance without sacrificing accuracy or detail.
.
The package includes a fully automated topology builder for proteins, even
multimeric structures. Building blocks are available for the 20 standard
aminoacid residues as well as some modified ones, the 4 nucleotide and 4
deoxinucleotide resides, several sugars and lipids, and some special groups
like hemes and several small molecules.

A first package is soon available under

If one of the readers of debian-devel would fancy to sponsor this
package then I'd very much appreciate it.
