NAMD
From Free net encyclopedia
NAMD (NAnoscale Molecular Dynamics)1is a free-of-charge molecular dynamics simulation package developed at the University of Illinois, noted for its parallel efficiency and often used to simulate large systems (millions of atoms). It was introduced in 1995 by Nelson et al. as a parallel molecular dynamics code enabling interactive simulation by linking to the visualization code VMD. NAMD has since matured, adding many features and scaling to thousands of processors. The latest version (as of July 2005) is 2.6b1, one new feature of which is support for the OPLS force field.
