Probing Biomolecular Machines with Graphics Processors.

The article presents a discussion of the use of computer graphics processing units (GPUs) to model molecular biological phenomena. It is noted that the increasing availability of inexpensive GPUs has led to the development of parallel computer techniques, and allowed increasingly complex simulations...
