Short presentation
Tinker-HP is a CPUs and multi-GPUs, multi-precision, MPI massively parallel package dedicated to long molecular dynamics simulations. Tinker-HP supports classical (OPLS, Amber, Charmm …) and polarizable force fields (AMOEBA, AMOEBA+, Amber(Pol), HIPPO, SIBFA…), neural networks (ANI, ANI-2X, DeePMD…) as well as various QM/MM interfaces (including polarizable embeddings). Tinker-HP is an evolution of the popular Tinker package that conserves it simplicity of use but brings new capabilities allowing performing very long molecular dynamics simulations on modern supercomputers that use thousands of GPUs.
The Tinker-HP approach offers various strategies using domain decomposition techniques for periodic boundary conditions in the framework of the (n)log(n) Smooth Particle Mesh Ewald. Tinker-HP proposes a high performance scalable computing environment enabling to access large systems up to millions of atoms.
The code has been extensively tested on 1080, 2080, 3090, P100, V100 and A100 NVIDIA GPU cards and supports multi-GPUs/multi-nodes computations. It is freely available on GitHub and on NVIDIA NGC websites.
