ssjwizard · Oct 24, 2006

ok so i downloaded the win 2k/xp client today onto a laptop system i have and the first workunit it was assigned is labeled project amber, using the amber core ive never seen these before and i tried to look it up on the stanford website but since the project doesnt list any project number so that i can look it up and see what the project is about. anyways i was wondering if anyone had any info on project amber or the amber core.

AMBER core

The AMBER core (Assisted Model Building and Energy Refinement) is a molecular dynamics program originally developed by Peter Kollman's group at the University of California, San Francisco. Its main use is in force field calculations. The project is now coordinated by David A. Case at Scripps Research Institute. The AMBER core does not take advantage of SSE to provide an increase in calculation speed, but hopefully will use SSE2 in the future.
There is a project to integrate at least a portion of the AMBER force field algorithm into the Gromacs core (ffamber). It is not clear if this will negate the use of the AMBER core.

According to http://fah-web.stanford.edu/psummary.html there are 4 WU's that are currently being handed out that are Amber Cores.
EDIT:

Diceca112 beat me to the punch. I removed my post, but left the info about what WU's are being handed out.
