Accelrys releases life science software

Aug. 10, 2006 – Accelrys Inc. announced the shipment of Discovery Studio 1.6, the most recent version of its suite of life science modeling and simulation tools for lead discovery and optimization.

Discovery Studio 1.6 includes additional functionality in the areas of structure-based design, protein modeling, simulations, analysis, and visualization. This release also includes the integration of Discovery Studio 1.6 with the company’s open pipelining platform, SciTegic Pipeline Pilot, for automation and extensibility.

The company said the combination of Discovery Studio 1.6 and Pipeline Pilot provides the ability to create and manage computational protocols that capture and automate data processing routines. Users can access protocols for protein modeling, receptor-ligand interactions, and simulation through either the Discovery Studio or Pipeline Pilot interface.

Pipeline Pilot’s architecture enables the creation and automation of customized protocols that can include diverse components, while Discovery Studio lets users access and execute those protocols from a graphical environment and subsequently visualize, analyze, and export results.

A free visualization component, DS Visualizer 1.6, is available at the company’s Web site.
