DHAKA: Three scientists have won the Nobel prize in chemistry for their work on multiscale models for complex systems.

Martin Karplus of Strasbourg and Harvard universities, Michael Levitt of Stanford University and Arieh Warshel at the University of Southern California share the prize.

The trio devised computer simulations to predict chemical processes.

They "took the chemistry experiment into cyberspace," said the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences.
