"Amber" refers to two things: a set of molecular mechanical force fields for the simulation of biomolecules (which are in the public domain, and are used in a variety of simulation programs); and a package of molecular simulation programs which includes source code and demos.

Amber is compiled using Intel compilers and uses OpenMPI for the parallel binaries.

Project website:

The following Modules files should be loaded for this package (the amber module will automatically load the openmpi module):

For Intel:

module load amber/amber-10-intel

Use the openmpi parallel environment in your job script (example for a 4 slot job)

#$ -pe openmpi 4
