    Abstract

    Population annealing is a novel generalized-ensemble simulation scheme used in large-scale parallel Monte Carlo simulations of disordered spin systems and similar problems. In a recent publication we proposed a generalization of this method to molecular dynamics simulations of biopolymers. In the present article we review this work and introduce a scheme for automatically choosing the temperature steps based on the observed distribution of potential energies in the population of simulated replica.
