The committee, asked to provide an assessment of computer-assisted modeling of molecular structure, has highlighted the signal successes and the significant limitations for a broad panoply of technologies and has projected plausible paths of development over the next decade.
As with any assessment of such scope, differing opinions about present or future prospects were expressed. The conclusions and recommendations, however, represent a consensus of our views of the present status of computational efforts in this field. The committee's task was made easier by colleagues who generously provided us with the benefit of their expertise. We wish particularly to thank Peter Goodford, William Jorgensen, and Andrew McCammon. The committee is indebted to the excellent National Research Council staff whose work greatly expedited the production of this report. Special thanks are due to Linda Poore, Susan Walton, and, particularly, to Walter Rosen for unfailing help and guidance.
