摘要
This paper presents general information about ARUZ, a scalable, fully parallel data processing system equipped with low-latency communication channels, designed for simulations of interactions among huge number of relatively simple elements. ARUZ consists of approximately 26 000 FPGAs and it can represent a system composed of several million elements consuming barely tens of kilowatts of power. It can be seen as a powerful machine for a wide range of applications. Currently, it implements the Dynamic Lattice Liquid algorithm, which enables studies of dynamic processes and phenomena in dense macromolecular systems. A performance estimation for liquid water shows that in one day ARUZ can model the diffusion of 1.5 million water molecules ongoing in reality for approximately 0.7 ms.
