In this paper, a new MD implementation named Bio-ESMD is presented, which improves computational efficiency by reorganizing the cell list data structure to adopt bond lists with guaranteed data locality. Compared to SW_GROMACS, the implementation achieves speedups of over two on Sunway TaihuLight and exhibits linear weak scaling efficiency, achieving simulation of systems with 308.8 million atoms at 1.33 ns/day or 14.44 million atoms at 17.28 ns/day.
Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of biological systems are playing an increasingly important role in the research of pathogens and drugs. Most MD methods for biological simulations rely on the listed bonds which interact among specific groups of atoms identified by atom tags (unique atom tags regardless the storage location). However, efficient mapping of tags to atom locations is often challenging on modern many-core processors because data locality can not always be guaranteed for large-scale systems. In this paper, we present Bio-ESMD, a new MD implementation supporting listed bonds. Bio-ESMD is designed and developed based on our previously designed ESMD framework for many-core processors. In Bio-ESMD, we have introduced a data-centric approach for refactoring MD algorithms by reorganizing the cell list data structure to adopt bond lists with guaranteed data locality. Our implementation achieves speedups of over two compared to SW_GROMACS on Sunway TaihuLight. Furthermore, Bio-ESMD can simulate a system of 308.8 million atoms at 1.33 ns/day or 14.44 million atoms at 17.28 ns/day with linear weak scaling efficiency.
