Abstract

We have successfully ported our parallel application programs, the PAPIA system [1] and the MolTreC no cut-off molecular dynamics simulator [2] onto a new compact 8-node Linux PC cluster. The PAPIA (Parallel Protein Information Analysis) system [1] is an integrated parallel computing system dedicated to typical search/analysis problems required in protein research, such as structure similarity search, sequence homology search, and multiple sequence alignment. The system was implemented on a 64-node PC cluster (PAPIA Cluster) and we have been operating a WWW-based free service since April 1998 (http://www.rwcp.or.jp/papia/). Now the PAPIA system also runs on a compact and inexpensive 8-node cluster which we will demonstrate at GIW99 (Fig. 1, Table 1).
