GPU Acceleration#
MolSysMT provides a strategic roadmap for GPU-accelerated molecular structure sequence processing and spatial calculations in Post-1.0 releases.
Current CPU Acceleration vs. GPU Roadmap#
MolSysMT currently optimizes CPU execution using multi-core Rayon parallelization and compiled Rust kernels. For massive structure sequence datasets—such as multi-terabyte datasets containing millions of atoms—GPU hardware acceleration provides an order-of-magnitude throughput increase.
Post-1.0 GPU Acceleration Features#
The long-term performance roadmap for MolSysMT introduces dedicated GPU acceleration kernels:
WGPU and CUDA Kernels: Native WebGPU (WGPU) and CUDA compute pipelines for platform-agnostic GPU execution across NVIDIA, AMD, Apple Silicon, and Intel hardware.
Massive Pair Distance & Contact Maps: Parallel GPU evaluation of pair distance matrices, contact frequency maps, and solvent accessibility surfaces across thousands of structures simultaneously.
Zero-Copy Trajectory and Structure Streaming to VRAM: Direct streaming of H5MSM structure sequence chunks into GPU VRAM buffers to maximize compute throughput.
