What is a CPU-hr.?
A CPU-hr. is the aggregate CPU time spent across all machines, rounded up to the nearest hour (e.g., a task running on 1,000 CPUs for one minute = 1,000 CPU minutes or approximately 17 CPU hours, costing you only $17).
Key Features

 - Scales to hundreds or thousands of processors, allowing for large scale modeling of cellular systems.
- Precompiled binaries provided for 12 popular platforms and portable to virtually any platform with Ethernet or MPI.
- NAMD is capable of performing several different kinds of Steered Molecular Dynamics, including rotation or translation of one or more atoms.
Description
 NAMD is a molecular dynamics code for high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems. NAMD offers unprecedented parallel performance on a challenging computational problem. NAMD has helped scientists discern how plants harvest sunlight, how muscles stretch and how kidneys filter water.
