ExTENCI, a partnership between the Open Science Grid and TeraGrid/XSEDE, provides tools that help researchers take advantage of both infrastructures. Those tools make it possible for researchers to access the computing resources they need more easily than ever.

This is particularly useful for researchers who need to use both high-throughput computing and high-performance computing in their studies. One such example is predicting the structure of larger proteins by mimicking how the proteins fold in nature.
