1. GPU Supercomputer Simulation of Complete H1N1 virus Brandon Abbott

2. Motivation / Objective Swine Flu / H1N1 Pandemic Summary  Combination of bird, pig, and human flu virus  First in the US April of 2009  Nov 14 th 2009 –  200,000 hospitalizations  10,000 deaths

3. Chinese H1N1 Flu Study - Goals  Institute of Process Engineering of Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS-IPE)  “A computational microscope”  Goals:  To control epidemics  To create anti-viral drugs  To see the whole process of the reactions  Reactions under a real microscope often occur too quickly.

4. GPU Super Computing Method  Mole 8.5 Supercomputer  2,200 NIVIDIA Telsa GPU’s  288 Server nodes  Able to simulate the whole H1N1 virus at an atomic level  Each day they simulated…  770 picoseconds of simulation (1 trillionth of a second)  Stepping at 1 femtosecond (1 quadrillionth of a second)  300 million atoms simulated.
