terachemとは 意味・読み方・使い方

TeraChem is the first computational chemistry software program written completely from scratch to benefit from the new streaming processors such as Graphics Processing Units (GPUs). The computational algorithms have been completely redesigned to exploit massive parallelism of CUDA-enabled NVIDIA GPUs. As of February, 2011, TeraChem is the only GPU-accelerated computational chemistry software that offers substantial speedups as compared to traditional CPU-based solutions. The original development started at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, later on taken to Stanford University. Due to the great potential of the developed technology, this GPU-accelerated software was subsequently commercialized. Now it is distributed by PetaChem, LLC located in the Silicon Valley. The software package is under active development and new features are released frequently.
