Introduction

oxDNA is a molecular dynamics simulation code that can be used to study the mechanical and thermodynamic properties of DNA and RNA molecules. Umbrella sampling is a highly parallelizable simulation technique that is used to calculate the free energy profiles between two particles or groups of particles. The ipy_oxDNA repository provides a Python interface for running oxDNA umbrella sampling simulations, allowing users to easily perform these simulations and analyze their results.

How to run NVIDIA Multiprocessing Service (mps)

NVIDIA MPS is a specialized service offered by NVIDIA, designed to enhance the multiprocessing capabilities of CUDA-enabled GPUs. Utilizing MPS allows for the execution of multiple simulations on a single GPU, resulting in an approximate 2.5x performance increase for specific simulation techniques such as Umbrella Sampling, Metadynamics, and Multi-Replica simulations.

In the absence of MPS, running concurrent simulations on a single GPU can lead to significant performance degradation. For comprehensive details on MPS, the official documentation is available at NVIDIA MPS Documentation.
