GROMACS on Tesla GPUs
GROMACS is a molecular dynamics package designed primarily for simulation of biochemical molecules like proteins, lipids, and nucleic acids that have a lot complicated bonded interactions. The CUDA port of GROMACS enabling GPU acceleration is now available in beta and supports Particle-Mesh-Ewald (PME), arbitrary forms of non-bonded interactions, and implicit solvent Generalized Born methods.
