DESCRIPTION:Description:\nThis course is designed for those users who wish 
 run classical molecular dynamics programs such as GROMACS and NAMD on mode
 rn supercomputers. By understanding better the HPC infrastructures and the
  algorithms used to exploit them\, the aim is to give researchers the tool
 s to run simulations in the most efficient way possible on current and fut
 ure supercomputers.\nThe course will consist of presentations and practica
 l sessions where students will be able to prepare and run examples of popu
 lar programs such as GROMACS and NAMD on the supercomputers of Cineca.\n\n
 Skills:\nBy the end of the course each student should be able to:\n\ncompr
 ehend the basic principles of classical molecular dynamics (MD).\n	underst
 and the common algorithms for the optimization and parallelization of MD a
 pplications and the factors limiting the performance and parallel scaling.
 \n	run and optimize MD simulations on advanced\, multicore architectures e
 quipped with both conventional processors and accelerators such as NVIDIA 
 GPUs.\n	design a simulation project for a computing resource application.\
 n	Target Audience:\n	Scientists with research interests in classical molec
 ular dynamics in computational biology\, chemistry or biophysics.\nPre-req
 uisites:\nResearch interest in classical molecular dynamics with a focus o
 n the simulation of biomolecular systems. Basic knowledge of UNIX and conc
 epts of parallel computing.\n\nGrant:\n\nA grant of 300 EUR (for foreign s
 tudents) and 150 EUR (for Italian students) will be available for particip
 ants not funded by their institution and not working in the Rome area.\nSo
 me documentation will be required and the grant will be paid only after a 
 certified presence of minimum 80% of the lessons and about 1 month after t
 he ending of the course.\nFor further information about how to submit for 
 the grant\, please wait the confirmation email that you are accepted to th
 e course about 3 weeks before the date of the beginning of the lessons. \
 n\nThe lunch for the 3 days will be provided by Cineca.\n \n\nhttps://eve
