Abstract
Ultimately, all the developments (formulations, numerical techniques, software packages, visualization procedures), described in the preceding chapters, will come to fruition with concrete results of practical value. Diverse, and very significant, possibilities exist, and more will be found. At this point, it will suffice to mention the development of conductors, molecular switches, synthetic vaccines, pepzymes, and drugs. All these projects may be grouped together under the general designation of structure-aided molecular design (Robertus 1994), although other designations, such as structure-assisted, structure-based, and computer-aided molecular design may also be found in the literature.
