BACKGROUND: We present a C++ class library for Monte Carlo simulation of molecular systems, including proteins in solution. The design is generic and highly modular, enabling multiple developers to easily implement additional features. The statistical mechanical methods are documented by extensive use of code comments that - subsequently - are collected to automatically build a web-based manual. R

Sammanfattning År 2010 kom Handbook for legislation on violence against women (Handboken) ut som en handbok för FN:s medlemstater i deras arbete att lagstifta bort våld mot kvinnor. Handboken kom flera år efter att den svenska kvinnofridsreformen genomförts och hade, kanske därför, inte så stor genomslagskraft i Sverige.
