A peek into Core 17 benchmarking
Our primary goal with benchmarking is "equal points for equal work." However, making this process consistent over lots of different types of WUs and different types of hardware is tricky.…

We've been working to streamline the stats system update to minimize downtime for donors. We now are able to update stats without taking the web pages off line, so stats…
Read moreStats server is down and undergoing maintenance
A key FAH server is down right now and stats updates have been suspended until it is back up. As always, stats are kept on the Work Servers (WS's) so…
Read moreHierarchical Nyström methods for constructing Markov state models for conformational dynamics
Markov state models (MSMs) have become a popular approach for investigating the conformational dynamics of proteins and other biomolecules. MSMs are typically built from numerous molecular dynamics simulations by dividing the sampled configurations into a large number of microstates based on geometric criteria. The resulting microstate model can then be coarse-gr…
