TL;DR: A massively parallel machine called Anton is described, which should be capable of executing millisecond-scale classical MD simulations of such biomolecular systems and has been designed to use both novel parallel algorithms and special-purpose logic to dramatically accelerate those calculations that dominate the time required for a typical MD simulation.

TL;DR: The architecture of Anton 2 is tailored for fine-grained event-driven operation, which improves performance by increasing the overlap of computation with communication, and also allows a wider range of algorithms to run efficiently, enabling many new software-based optimizations.

TL;DR: Anton 3 as mentioned in this paper is the fastest supercomputers in the world, achieving an order-of-magnitude improvement in time-to-solution over its predecessor, Anton 2, and is over 100 times faster than any other currently available supercomputer.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Hierarchical simulation-based verification of Anton, a special-purpose parallel machine
J. P. Grossman,John K. Salmon,C.R. Ho,Douglas J. Ierardi,Brian Towles,Brannon Batson,Jochen Spengler,Stanley C. Wang,Rolf Mueller,Michael Theobald,Cliff Young,Joseph Gagliardo,Martin M. Deneroff,Ron O. Dror,David E. Shaw +14 more
TL;DR: This work verified the long-term numerical stability of computations on Anton by using a hierarchy of RTL, architectural, and numerical simulations, which created a continuous verification chain from molecular dynamics to individual logic gates.
