"Doing a project like this reinforces that there’s a process to learning. You have to measure, experiment, and repeat. You need to be able to visualize the changes you’re making. [Intel® VTune™ Profiler] was great for that. You need to challenge assumptions. We did not walk into this project expecting that we could reduce the disk count by 75%. And as you get data from each experiment, refine what you’re doing and try again."

"Owing to algorithmic advances and hardware breakthroughs, we have come a very long way in simulation of biological systems and processes highly relevant to human health and disease. The expectation from simulation engines like NAMD is to provide molecular insight, which cannot be obtained otherwise, into key mechanisms and details that can be harvested to address major concerns in human health, as clearly exemplified by the current work performed at many labs on COVID-19 virus. A key element in our successful simulation of biological systems has been longer and faster simulations, achieved by maximal exploitation of available hardware technology in the best way possible, which also constitutes the main goal of the UIUC oneAPI CoE."
