A concept of vectorization of molecular dynamics Fortran programs for the use of the Cyber 205 machine is presented. It is shown that for calculations with larger particle systems the program runs faster on the 205 than on the Cray-i by about a factor of two. Against conventional computers like the

β¦ Synopsis
Algorithms are presented which enable molecular dynamics simulations of liquids to be performed most efficiently on the Cray-i vector processing computer. For 256 atoms interacting via the Lennard-Jones potential the CPU time per step of the simulation is 22 ms.
