A prototype of a parallel machine for the simulation of a two-dimensional Ising spin systems is described. To exploit the maximum possible parallelism there is a processor for each lattice site. A prototype machine with 12 processors has been built. Construction details and performances are given.
We demonstrate that the recently proposed pruned-enriched Rosenbluth method (PERM) (Grassberger, Phys. Rev. E 56:3682, 1997) leads to extremely efficient algorithms for the folding of simple model proteins. We test it on several models for lattice heteropolymers, and compare it to published Monte Ca
