DESCRIPTION:This course is designed for those users who wish run classical 
 molecular dynamics programs such as GROMACS and NAMD on modern supercomput
 ers. By understanding better the HPC infrastructures and the algorithms us
 ed to exploit them\, the aim is to give researchers the tools to run simul
 ations in the most efficient way possible on current and future supercompu
 ters. \nAt least half the course will be devoted to practical sessions wh
 ere students will be able to prepare and run GROMACS or NAMD examples on t
 he supercomputers of Cineca.\n\nTarget Audience\nScientists with research 
 interests in classical molecular dynamics in computational biology\, chemi
 stry or biophysics.TopicsBasic principles of classical Molecular Dynamics 
 (MD). Common algorithms for the optimization and parallelization of MD app
 lications and factors limiting the performance and parallel scaling. Appli
 cation of MD on multi-core and hybrid architectures equipped with accelera
 tors such as Intel Xeon PHIs. Project design and strategies for resource a
 pplication.\n\nPre-requisites: \nResearch interest in classical molecular
  dynamics with a focus on the simulation of biomolecular systems. Basic kn
 owledge of UNIX and concepts of parallel computing.Grant:\n\nA grant of 30
 0 EUR (for foreign students) and 150 EUR (for Italian students) will be av
 ailable for participants not funded by their institution and not working i
 n the Bologna area.\nSome documentation will be required and the grant wil
 l be paid only after a certified presence of minimum 80% of the lessons an
 d about 1 month after the ending of the course.\nFor further information a
 bout how to submit for the grant\, please wait the confirmation email that
  you are accepted to the course about 3 weeks before the date of the begin
 ning of the lessons. \n \n\nThe lunch for the 3 days will be provided by
  Cineca.\n\nCourse Organizers:\nAndrew Emerson (Cineca)\nGiovanni Chillemi
