pyPcazip: A PCA-based toolkit for compression and analysis of molecular simulation data
in SoftwareX
Description | We developed new algorithms and preliminary software implementations for those algorithms. |
Exploitation Route | We have created the MIST toolkit which allows modification of large scale molecular dynamics simulation codes. Examples of codes we currently support include NAMD Lite and Gromacs. We are currently working on additional plugins to support AMBER. We have begun preliminary studies for the treatment of constraints. |

Country | United States |
Sector | Private |
PI Contribution | We have planned and implemented an interface between the MIST library and Forcite, a classical molecular dynamics code which is part of the Materials Studio package developed by Dassault Systemes BIOVIA. We have tested the Langevin dynamics integration scheme developed at UoE and discussed plans for further functionality, laying the groundwork for a longer-term engagement with BIOVIA. |
Collaborator Contribution | BIOVIA staff have hosted two visits from UoE staff, and given us support and training on the design and implementation of Forcite, enabling us to complete the interface between MIST & Forcite very easily. |
Impact | A prototype version of Forcite with MIST library support is under evaluation by BIOVIA for future inclusion in the Materials Studio product. |

Title | ExTASY toolkit (pre-release) |
Description | ExTASY is a flexible software toolkit which addresses one of the "Grand Challenges in the Chemical Sciences", namely the ability to understand the properties of complex macromolecular systems by effective sampling of their conformational space using Molecular Dynamics. The toolkit couples large ensemble MD calculations, with novel analysis methods and efficient integrators, to support orders-of-magnitude faster sampling. |

Title | MPI-parallel version of PCAZIP |
Description | Principal Component Analysis (PCA) forms the basis of a powerful range of simulation analysis methods, and also provides an approach to very efficient trajectory data compression. The pyPcazip package is a re-implementation by the ExTASY project www.extasy-project.org of the PCAZIP toolkit developed and distributed by the Laughton Group at the University of Nottingham, UK, and the Orozco group at the University of Barcelona, Spain. |
