Abstract
A modified version of stochastic tunneling, a recently
introduced global optimization technique, is introduced as a
new generalized-ensemble technique and tested for a benchmark
peptide, Met-enkephalin. It is demonstrated that the new technique allows
to evaluate folding properties and especially the glass temperature 
of this peptide.
