SAMSON

SAMSON (Software for Adaptive Modeling and Simulation Of Nanosystems) is a computer software platform for molecular design being developed by OneAngstrom and previously by the NANO-D group at the French Institute for Research in Computer Science and Automation (INRIA).

SAMSON has a modular architecture that makes it suitable for different domains of nanoscience, including material science, life science, and drug design.

SAMSON Extensions, developed with the SAMSON software development kit (SDK), help users perform tasks, including building new models, performing calculations, running interactive or offline simulations, and visualizing and interpreting results.

SAMSON, SAMSON Extensions and the SAMSON Software Development Kit are distributed via the SAMSON Connect website. The site acts as a repository for the SAMSON Extensions being uploaded by developers, and users of SAMSON choose and add extensions from SAMSON Connect.
