description: "The software implements a heterogeneous multiscale method (HMM), which\
  \ involves solving a classical molecular dynamics (MD) problem and then computes\
  \ the entropy production in order to compute the relaxation times towards equilibrium\
  \ for use in a Bhatnagar-Gross-Krook (BGK) solver."
