We present the implementation of an umbrella-like adaptive sampling approach based on function-based meshless discretization of conformational space that is compatible with state of the art molecular dynamics code and that integrates an eigenvector-based clustering approach for conformational analysis and the computation of inter-conformational transition rates. The approach is applied to three example systems, namely n-pentane, alanine dipeptide, and a small synthetic host-guest system, the latter two including explicitly modeled solvent.

As a matter of fact, the efficient and scalable implementation of concurrent multiscale methods on clusters and supercomputers is a complicated endeavor. In this article we present the parallel multiscale simulation tool MACI which has been designed for efficient coupling between molecular dynamics and finite element codes. We propose a specification for a thin yet versatile interface for the coupling of molecular dynamics and finite element codes in a modular fashion. Further we discuss the parallelization strategy pursued in MACI, in particular, focusing on the parallel assembly of transfer operators and their efficient execution.
