Development of computer technology in chemistry, bring many application of chemistry. Not only the application to visualize the structure of molecule but also to molecular dynamics simulation. One of them is Gromacs. Gromacs is an example of molecular dynamics application developed by Groningen University. This application is a non-commercial and able to work in the operating system Linux. The ...

We report on a python interface to the GROMACS molecular simulation package, GromPy (available at https://github.com/GromPy). This application programming interface (API) uses the ctypes python module that allows function calls to shared libraries, for example, written in C. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first reported interface to the GROMACS library that uses direct library calls....

In order to get the dynamic molecule model from the static one, the molecular dynamics (MD) simulation needs to be performed. Some software sets such as GROMACS are used for that purpose. Unfortunately they lack GUI. The Dynamics PyMOL plugin allows researcher to perform MD simulations directly from the PyMOL software by GUI-based interface of GROMACS tools. This paper describes many improvemen...

Gromita is a fully integrated and efficient graphical user interface (GUI) to the recently updated molecular dynamics suite Gromacs, version 4. Gromita is a cross-platform, perl/tcl-tk based, interactive front end designed to break the command line barrier and introduce a new user-friendly environment to run molecular dynamics simulations through Gromacs. Our GUI features a novel workflow inter...

The CELLmicrocosmos MembraneEditor (CmME) [1] enables researchers to generate PDB [2] based membrane structures in a convenient way. The lipid distribution is computed by algorithms working on the outer shapes of the molecules. For this reason, the computation and visualization process is very fast, while the atomistic structure of each single molecule remains unchanged. PDB membranes can be ex...

This report introduces hybrid implementation of the Gromacs application, and provides instructions on building and executing on PRACE prototype platforms with Grahpical Processing Units (GPU) and Many Intergrated Cores (MIC) accelerator technologies. GROMACS currently employs message-passing MPI parallelism, multi-threading using OpenMP and contains kernels for non-bonded interactions that are ...
