Abstract

We introduce a novel simulation method, model hopping, that enhances sampling of low-energy configurations in complex systems. The approach is illustrated for a protein-folding problem. Thermodynamic quantities of proteins with up to 46 residues are evaluated from all-atom simulations with this method. © 2005 The American Physical Society.
