A scientific modeling company, Simulations Plus, announced a new version of its flagship product, ClassPharmer.  David Miller, senior scientist and product manager for ClassPharmer at Simulations Plus, said: “Major revisions in the algorithms, coupled with a transition to a faster programming language, resulted in a ten- to thousand-fold speed increase in critical tasks such as substructure matching, predictive model generation and chemical class identification. With version 4.0, it is now possible to perform detailed analyses of thousands of molecules in just minutes, versus hours or days using the previous version.”
