Specific proteins mediate distinctive membrane functions such as transport, communication, and energy transduction. Many integral membrane proteins span the lipid bilayer, whereas others are partly embedded in the membrane.

The functions of membrane proteins are many, varied and specific they include transport, communication and energy transductions. Membranes are asymmetrical and the properties of their two surfaces are different. 

As noted above, one of the goals of NAMD 2 is to take advantage of clusters of symmetric multiprocessor workstations and other non-uniform memory access platforms. This can be achieved in the current design by allowing multiple compute objects to run concurrently on different processors via kernel-level threads. Because compute objects interact in a controlled manner with patches, access controls need only be applied to a small number of structures such as force and energy accumulators. A shared memory environment will therefore contribute almost no parallel overhead and generate communication equal to that of a single-processor node.

The future of industries such as transportation, communications, electronics, and energy conversion hinges on new and improved materials and the processing technologies required to produce them. Recent years have seen rapid advances in our understanding of how to combine substances into materials with special, high-performance properties and how to best use these materials in sophisticated designs. 

The state of communities and ecosystems can be described according to both structural and functional parameters (see Chapter 14 in Walker et al. 2000). Functional analyses include the measurement of nutrient cycling, turnover of organic residues, energy flow, and niche metrics. Structural analyses include the assessment of species present, their population densities, and their genetic composition.
