                          No, even without PME this is not
                          straightforward.<br>
                          Using a plain cut-off's for electrostatics is
                          horrible, so I'd say you want to use
                          reaction-field.<br>
                          But with reaction-filed the correction terms

                                    Hi,<br>
                                    what I am trying to do is
                                    implementing the REST2 tecnique [1]<br>
                                    The goal is enanching the
                                    conforlational sampling splitting
                                    the system in<br>
                                    two parts: solvent and solute.<br>
                                    The two groups have a different
                                    APPARENT temperature because the
                                    bonded<br>
                                    interaction within the solute atoms
                                    are rescaled by a factor Bi/B (<br>
                                    Bi=1/Ti*Kb, &nbsp;Ti = apparent
                                    temperature for the i-th replica,
                                    B=Boltzmann<br>
                                    constant) and the &nbsp;protein-water
                                    interactions are rescaled by
                                    sqrt(Bi/B).<br>
                                    So the system temperature, regulated
                                    by the thermostat, is equal along
                                    the<br>
                                    different replicas but the dynamic
                                    of the different replicas<br>
                                    changes becaus of the different
                                    Boltzmann factor.<br>
                                    To implement the tecnique, the naive
                                    approach (adopted in [2]) is:<br>
                                    1) Generating N-different topology
                                    (N= number of replicas).<br>
                                    2) Removing same check at the
                                    beginning of the Replica Exchange
                                    code, in<br>
                                    order to run N replicas with equal
                                    run parameters (temperature,
                                    pression,<br>
                                    ecc. ecc.)<br>
                                    3) Changing the acceptance ratio
                                    formula.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; This approach has been developped
                                    for gmx4.0.3 but I need to use<br>
                                    gmx4.5.5 because it has a native
                                    implementation of the CHARMM
                                    force-field.<br>
                                    Since the code between the two
                                    versions is different I am trying to
                                    figure<br>
                                    out how to reinvent the wheel.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; As shown in [3] and adopted in [2]
                                    the same result can be obtained
                                    using<br>
                                    the lamda dynamics in gromacs.In
                                    this case, only one topology has to
                                    be<br>
                                    generated. The state A correspond to
                                    the replica at the lowest apparent<br>
                                    temperature, while the state B
                                    represents the highest temperature
                                    replica.<br>
                                    Intermediate replicas are generated
                                    changing the init_lambda value.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; What has been found, this approach
                                    results in slowest run.<br>
                                    <br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; So, right now I got stuck at the
                                    point 3. In fact &nbsp;to find:<br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; delta = B( Va(Xb) + Vb(Xa) -
                                    Va(Xa) - Vb(Xb))<br>
                                    <br>
                                    &nbsp; I need to calculate Va(Xb) and
                                    Vb(Xa)<br>
                                    <br>
                                    <br>
                                    Va(Xb) is determined by the
                                    potential of replica a and the
                                    coordinates of<br>
                                    replica b, so it is most effectively
                                    evaluated on the processor that has<br>
                                    the coordinates of replica b. If the
                                    topology is the same at the replicas
                                    a<br>
                                    and b, then can Va(Xb) be computed
                                    by replica b by rescaling suitably
                                    the<br>
                                    quantities that contributed to
                                    Vb(Xb), based on the knowledge that
                                    replica<br>
                                    a is the exchange partner? Then the
                                    quantities that are exchanged before<br>
                                    the test are Va(Xb) and Vb(Xa).
                                    Should be as fast as regular REMD.<br>
