    If your topology is not changing, then you need only construct a new

                  Just wondering. How fast is it? Calling gromacs must

                        Hi,<br>
                        <br>
                        Although I don't work with MC simulation, I have
                        used Gromacs to obtain energies and others<br>
                        protein features in my Evolutionary Algorithms
                        (EA).<br>
                        <br>
                        In general lines, I created a script that calls
                        Gromacs programs and the output of these<br>
                        programs, such as g_energy (I read its xvg
                        file), I stored it at a specific file which is<br>
                        read by my algorithm and its values are put into
                        my data structure. I call Gromacs either<br>
                        implicit or explicit solvent.&nbsp;<br>
                        <br>
                        My project is working with EA until now.
                        However, the integration with GROMACS is able to<br>
                        work with other kind of algorithms such as MC.
                        Actually, we have idea to work with MC. But,<br>
                        I don't know when it will be possible. If you
                        want, we can talk about join these work.<br>

                        <br>
                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I would like to use gromacs to perform
                        Monte Carlo simulations in implicit<br>
                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;solvent of a protein near a surface. The

                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;whereas the surface is fix.<br>
                        <br>
                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;I see that there are plans to code MC into
                        gromacs:<br>

                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;Besides this. Is there an easy way to

                        &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp;using gromacs? Would I have to run a
