Hi there.
I've come across some projects where you can use the onboard graphics processor of your video card to crunch work units, particular seti@home and folding@home. Could Faah be designed to work the same way? Thanks. |

CUDA is dead, long live OpenCL.
----------------------------------------whocrazy, yes, many volunteers are already using the GPU card for crunching specialized computations at other grids. Yes FAAH AutoDock could be designed to do that, but as we've been discussing in past, that's a very major enterprise and requires the scientists to do the porting and actually code it in a way that it will actually run more efficient by a multiple factor. WCG is a hoster, slowly and meticulously preparing for that day.

Possibly interesting to see which is the software they used for the H1N1 virus dockig:
Klaus Schulten of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, one of the world's top computational biologists, will deliver the second keynote on Wednesday, Sept. 22, highlighting the major discoveries made using the computational microscope. In addition, he will review his pioneering research on cell disruption and viruses, including the H1N1 virus. His H1N1 research uses the GPU-based computational microscope to focus on the structure of the virus, determine how it reacts to drug treatment and investigate possible methods of combating it. http://pressroom.nvidia.com/easyir/customrel....mp;releasejsp=release_157 |

From 06:30 minutes into the video Dr. Schulten starts his talk:
