What is the Anton supercomputer?

The Anton supercomputer is named after Anton van Leeuwenhoek, who is often referred to as “the father of microscopy” because he built high-precision optical instruments and used them to visualize a wide variety of organisms and cell types for the first time.

What is the anton2 machine?

The ANTON 2 machine with four 512 nodes and its substantially increased speed and problem size has been described. The National Institutes of Health have supported an ANTON for the biomedical research community at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center, Carnegie-Mellon University, and currently (8/20) continues with an ANTON2 system.

What makes Anton different from other MD simulations?

Unlike earlier special-purpose systems for MD simulations, such as MDGRAPE-3 developed by RIKEN in Japan, Anton runs its computations entirely on specialized ASICs, instead of dividing the computation between specialized ASICs and general-purpose host processors. Each Anton ASIC contains two computational subsystems.

What is the Anton ASIC high-throughput interaction subsystem?

Each Anton ASIC contains two computational subsystems. Most of the calculation of electrostatic and van der Waals forces is performed by the high-throughput interaction subsystem (HTIS). This subsystem contains 32 deeply pipelined modules running at 800 MHz arranged much like a systolic array.
