        abstract = {Many people consider the process of finding and developing a new medicine to be time-consuming, costly, and resource-intensive.  Consequently, there is currently widespread usage of computer-aided drug design approaches to increase the efficacy of the drug discovery and development process.  In the realm of drug discovery and development, structure-based and ligand-based drug design approaches are recognized as highly potent and successful methods. Other CADD approaches are deemed promising due to their requirement.  Molecular docking can be combined with both of these methods to optimize and identify virtual leads.  To improve the efficacy and efficiency of the drug discovery and development process, the pharmaceutical industry and research areas have been using computational technology extensively in recent years. In this article, we provide an overview of computational techniques, a creative method for identifying new leads that supports the investigation of drug discovery and development. (1)},
