From Molecular Modeling to IT and cloud computing

It’s been already more than a year since I haven’t posted anything here, and the reason for that is, that I switched fields.
Since May 2014 I have been working for the DKRZ, the German Climate Computing Centre, on field cloud computing.

This means, that as I most likely won’t be facing so many molecular modeling challenges anymore, my tips and tricks are going to focus mostly on IT and Cloud Computing stuff from now on.

As in he case of Molecular Modeling, and quantum chemistry/physics in general, the IT field has a lot of tricky tools and concepts which are not so easy to understand. But as in the case of quantum chemistry, once I understand the ideas, I find out that they can be roughly explained in a very simple way… Continue reading
