The Minnesota Supercomputer Institute (MSI) is a multidisciplinary research program of the University of Minnesota. Supercomputer research at MSI is carried out using the three supercomputers at the Minnesota Supercomputer Center, which is a short walk or campus-bus ride from the heart of the Minneapolis campus. The supercomputers include a two-pipe, 8-megaword Control Data Corporation CYBER 205 with a VSOS virtual memory operating system, a one-processor, 16-megaword CRAY-2 with UNICOS UNIX operating system, and a four-processor, 256-megaword CRAY-2 also running UNICOS. The authors describe here a selection of the research projects carried out using these machines by researchers from the Departments of Chemistry, Chemical Engineering and Materials Science, and Medicinal Chemistry.
