The designing, production and testing of the mDLL machine led to the development of such a structure in which operational cells (e.g. KDLL) were located in the nodes of a three-dimensional torus network and the device was scalable. Thus, the future expansion of this device with additional Printed Circuit Boards (PCB) will not result in lengthened wire connections between Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGA) or slow down the operation of the machine. The conducted tests confirmed the correctness of the adopted design assumptions and showed that by using mDLL one can effectively perform molecular simulations. Despite some structural shortcomings, the mDLL machine was a prototype that has already been sufficiently tested to allow the technology used in it to be used to build a device with a number of 1 million to 5 million KDLL cells. Such a device would already be suitable for simulating multi-particle systems with unprecedented speed.
