Abstract
Protein folds prediction is one of the most important problems in computational biology. A new parallel algorithm for 3D protein structure prediction is presented in this paper. This algorithm is based on the quasi-physical algorithm that was presented in Liu, G. et al. (2005). Compared with the sequential algorithm, the parallel version improves performance greatly and can obtain much lower energy states for some instances
