The Blue Gene Project update.
R. Germain
Abstract: The Blue Gene project has two main goals: to advance our understanding
of the mechanisms behind protein folding via large-scale simulation, and
to explore novel ideas in massively parallel machine architecture and software.
This talk will provide a high level overview of the current state of the
machine design and the science program. The science program is currently
being carried out on conventional hardware platforms to build up experience
with techniques that may be used later on a larger scale. In
particular, ongoing simulation studies related to force field characterization
and recently published work on free energy landscape analysis of a beta hairpin
system (c-terminus of protein G) will be described.
