Parallel Molecular Dynamics Analysis tools

Project description

Build Status Coverage PRs welcome DOI conda release

Ready to use analysis and buildings blocks to write parallel analysis algorithms using MDAnalysis with dask.

For example, run a rmsd analysis on all available cores:

import MDAnalysis as mda
from pmda import rms

u = mda.Universe(top, traj)
ref = mda.Universe(top, traj)

rmsd_ana = rms.RMSD(u.atoms, ref.atoms).run(n_jobs=-1)

print(rmsd_ana.rmsd)

By default PMDA use the multiprocessing scheduler of dask. This is sufficient if you want to run your simulation on a single machine. If your analysis takes a very long time (>30 min) you can also spread it to several nodes using the distributed scheduler. To do this you can pass a scheduler keyword argument to the run method.

To write your own parallel algorithms you can subclass the pmda.parallel.ParallelAnalysisBase class.
