## Abstract We present a method of parallelizing flat histogram Monte Carlo simulations, which give the free energy of a molecular system as an output. In the serial version, a constant probability distribution, as a function of any system parameter, is calculated by updating an external potential

A new Hybrid Monte Carlo (HMC) algorithm has been developed to test protein potential functions and, ultimately, refine protein structures. The main principle of this algorithm is, in each cycle, a new trial conformation is generated by carrying out a short period of molecular dynamics (MD) iteratio
We present a comparison of four free energy calculation methods: Ε½ . Ε½ . thermodynamic integration TI ; traditional free energy perturbation FEP ; Ε½ . Bennett's acceptance ratio method IPS ; and a method that is related to an Ε½ . implementation of the WHAM method CRS . The theoretical bases of the
A new H3 potential energy hypersurface for arbitrary nuclear arrangements is generated fmm Liu's very accurate (eO.3 kcai/mole error) collinear ab initio calculation and compared with other general geometry surfaces. Preliminary classical trajectory calculations on the new hypersurface are presented
