Modern graphics processing units (GPUs) provide impressive computing resources, which can be accessed conveniently through the CUDA programming interface. We describe how GPUs can be used to considerably speed up molecular dynamics (MD)…

Mixing precisions for performance has been an ongoing trend as the modern hardware accelerators started including new, and mostly lower-precision, data formats. The advantage of using them is a great potential of performance gain and energy…
