This $299,644 Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation (NSF) Division of Chemistry, under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), supports the development of software infrastructure to enable real-time analysis of molecular dynamics simulation data. The project aims to create a streaming protocol that transfers simulation data directly to analysis software, avoiding the need for storage of massive data files. This approach allows for simultaneous analysis of fast (sub-picosecond) and slow (microsecond) molecular processes without creating computational bottlenecks. The award supports the implementation of these capabilities within the open-source MDAnalysis software platform, enabling spatially resolved protein solvation analysis and other advanced techniques. The project will be conducted by Arizona State University from August 1, 2023 to July 31, 2026.
