	Dear CCLers,

I would be grateful for any reference to recent reviews about
applications of ab-initio and/or semiempirical methods to 
transition metal complexes (especially for the first row metals),

	Best regards,
    		Mike.

Subject: Umbrella sampling: where are the technical details?



Hi!  I'm gearing up to do several umbrella sampling studies using a
simple ("minimalist") model of protein-like folding.  I've never done
this sort of thing, and though I understand the theory behind it well
enough, but it would save me a lot of trial-and-error to read a
technical review of umbrella sampling addressing technical details
like the choice of parameters such as bin width(s), temperatures, and
relative strength of the various coupling constants for the
restraining potentials (I need at least two reaction coordinates, with
corresponding restraining potentials; I'll use a histogramming
technique to combine data produced at different temperatures).  A
review that also addressed issues specific to the study of
protein-like folding would be ideal, but this is perhaps too much to
ask.

Anyway, if anyone knows of such a review, please let me know of it.
I'll post a summary of responses.

Thanks!

The Theoretical Biophysics Group at the University of Illinois is
proud to announce the public release of a new version of NAMD, a
parallel, object-oriented molecular dynamics code designed for
high-performance simulation of large biomolecular systems.  NAMD is
distributed free of charge and includes source code.  NAMD development
is supported by the NIH National Center for Research Resources.

NAMD 2.1 is more stable than NAMD 2.0 and adds several new features:

- Tcl scripting language interface and config file parsing.

- Mollified impulse multiple timestepping method.

- Faster particle mesh Ewald implementation.

- Periodic boundaries for non-orthogonal cells.

- New interactive molecular dynamics interface to VMD.

NAMD is available from http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/.

The Theoretical Biophysics group encourages NAMD users to be closely
involved in the development process through reporting bugs, contributing
fixes, periodical surveys and via other means.  Questions or comments
may be directed to namd@ks.uiuc.edu.

We are eager to hear from you, and thank you for using our software!

Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"

Dear Netters,

	How do I read a checkpoint file?  I have been unable to read my checkpoint
files in GaussView (G98).  I have been using an FTP program (CuteFTP) and
all my gaussian jobs are stored in one directory, so I decided to make
sub-directories to sort out all my jobs.  I transferred the files from the
FTP to my personal computer and then back into their appropriate
sub-directories using ASCII mode for both transfers.  But when I go into
GaussView to view my checkpoint file an error message comes up saying
unable to read checkpoint file.  Is there anyway to fix my problem, or am I
screwed?  

Thank You,

	Ben Moritz
