Molecular Search Overview

 

Drug discovery is expensive—both in terms of cost and time.

Searching large chemical fingerprint databases requires substantial computing power.

The ability to search quickly and effectively has a direct impact on time-to-market goals.

 


 

Introducing a new molecular search engine powered by GSI’s Gemini® Associative Processing Unit (APU) on the GSI APU board.

Gemini® delivers accurate search results while reducing search times in large databases from many minutes to fractions of a second,
all with very low power consumption.

 


 

Accelerated Performance

Integrated with the BIOVIA™ Pipeline Pilot scientific application, Gemini® delivers exceptional performance for circular fingerprint similarity search, including threshold searches at under 0.8.

Gemini is a patented processing technology featuring massive parallel data processing, compute and search—in-place, directly in the memory array. This architecture gives the APU a performance edge in the acceleration of similarity search applications.

 

 

 

 

Easy Integration

Gemini is a scalable solution. Large datasets and multiple queries can be processed quickly with no loss of performance and with very low power consumption.

Integration with Pipeline Pilot or other applications using the Tanimoto distance metric is straightforward.
