Unlike other force field formats, SMIRNOFF describes not only the parameters of the force field, but also the chemistries to which those parameters should be applied. + +This workshop introduces the SMIRNOFF format to familiar MD practitioners and describes how a system can be parametrized from a SMIRNOFF force field for a number of different MD engines.
