VMD 1.9.1 released

February 9th, 2012

VMD is a popular molecular visualization and analysis program used by thousands of researchers worldwide. VMD accelerates many of the most computationally demanding visualization and analysis features using GPU computing techqniques, resulting in improved performance and new capabilities beyond what is possible using only conventional multi-core CPUs. VMD 1.9.1 advances these capabilities further with a CUDA implementation of the new QuickSurf molecular surface representation, enabling smooth interactive animation of moderate sized biomolecular complexes consisting of a few hundred thousand to one million atoms, and allowing interactive display of molecular surfaces for static structures of very large complexes containing tens of millions of atoms, e.g. large virus capsids.

    Iam working on University of Seoul.
    I want to obtain the VMD program from you to visualize the CPMD results.
