OpenMSCG: A Software Tool for Bottom-Up Coarse-Graining.

ABSTRACT: The "bottom-up" approach to coarse-graining, for building accurate and efficient computational models to simulate large-scale and complex phenomena and processes, is an important approach in computational chemistry, biophysics, and materials science. As one example, the Multiscale Coarse-Graining (MS-CG) approach to developing CG models can be rigorously derived using statistical mechanics applied to fine-grained, i.e., all-atom simulation data for a given system. Under a number of circumstances, a systematic procedure, such as MS-CG modeling, is particularly valuable. Here, we present the development of the OpenMSCG software, a modularized open-source software that provides a collection of successful and widely applied bottom-up CG methods, including Boltzmann Inversion (BI), Force-Matchi
