Introducing ONETEP: Linear-Scaling Density Functional Simulations on Parallel Computers Chris-Kriton Skylaris,A) Peter D
THE JOURNAL OF CHEMICAL PHYSICS 122, 084119 ͑2005͒ Introducing ONETEP: Linear-scaling density functional simulations on parallel computers Chris-Kriton Skylaris,a) Peter D. Haynes, Arash A. Mostofi, and Mike C. Payne Theory of Condensed Matter, Cavendish Laboratory, Madingley Road, Cambridge CB3 0HE, United Kingdom ͑Received 29 September 2004; accepted 4 November 2004; published online 23 February 2005͒ We present ONETEP ͑order-N electronic total energy package͒, a density functional program for parallel computers whose computational cost scales linearly with the number of atoms and the number of processors. ONETEP is based on our reformulation of the plane wave pseudopotential method which exploits the electronic localization that is inherent in systems with a nonvanishing band gap. We summarize the theoretical developments that enable the direct optimization of strictly localized quantities expressed in terms of a delocalized plane wave basis. These same localized quantities lead us to a physical way of dividing the computational effort among many processors to allow calculations to be performed efficiently on parallel supercomputers. We show with examples that ONETEP achieves excellent speedups with increasing numbers of processors and confirm that the time taken by ONETEP as a function of increasing number of atoms for a given number of processors is indeed linear. What distinguishes our approach is that the localization is achieved in a controlled and mathematically consistent manner so that ONETEP obtains the same accuracy as conventional cubic-scaling plane wave approaches and offers fast and stable convergence. We expect that calculations with ONETEP have the potential to provide quantitative theoretical predictions for problems involving thousands of atoms such as those often encountered in nanoscience and biophysics. -
Natural Bond Orbital Analysis in the ONETEP Code: Applications to Large Protein Systems Louis P
WWW.C-CHEM.ORG FULL PAPER Natural Bond Orbital Analysis in the ONETEP Code: Applications to Large Protein Systems Louis P. Lee,*[a] Daniel J. Cole,[a] Mike C. Payne,[a] and Chris-Kriton Skylaris[b] First principles electronic structure calculations are typically Generalized Wannier Functions of ONETEP to natural atomic performed in terms of molecular orbitals (or bands), providing a orbitals, NBO analysis can be performed within a localized straightforward theoretical avenue for approximations of region in such a way that ensures the results are identical to an increasing sophistication, but do not usually provide any analysis on the full system. We demonstrate the capabilities of qualitative chemical information about the system. We can this approach by performing illustrative studies of large derive such information via post-processing using natural bond proteins—namely, investigating changes in charge transfer orbital (NBO) analysis, which produces a chemical picture of between the heme group of myoglobin and its ligands with bonding in terms of localized Lewis-type bond and lone pair increasing system size and between a protein and its explicit orbitals that we can use to understand molecular structure and solvent, estimating the contribution of electronic delocalization interactions. We present NBO analysis of large-scale calculations to the stabilization of hydrogen bonds in the binding pocket of with the ONETEP linear-scaling density functional theory package, a drug-receptor complex, and observing, in situ, the n ! p* which we have interfaced with the NBO 5 analysis program. In hyperconjugative interactions between carbonyl groups that ONETEP calculations involving thousands of atoms, one is typically stabilize protein backbones. -

What's New in Biovia Materials Studio 2020
WHAT’S NEW IN BIOVIA MATERIALS STUDIO 2020 Datasheet BIOVIA Materials Studio 2020 is the latest release of BIOVIA’s predictive science tools for chemistry and materials science research. Materials Studio empowers researchers to understand the relationships between a material’s mo- lecular or crystal structure and its properties in order to make more informed decisions about materials research and development. More often than not materials performance is influenced by phenomena at multiple scales. Scientists using Materials Studio 2020 have an extensive suite of world class solvers and parameter sets operating from atoms to microscale for simulating more materials and more properties than ever before. Furthermore, the predicted properties can now be used in multi-physics modeling and in systems modeling software such as SIMULIA Abaqus and CATIA Dymola to predict macroscopic behaviors. In this way multiscale simulations can be used to solve some of the toughest pro- blems in materials design and product optimization. BETTER MATERIALS - BETTER BATTERIES Safe, fast charging batteries with high energy density and long life are urgently needed for a host of applications - not least for the electrification of all modes of transportation as an alternative to fossil fuel energy sources. Battery design relies on a complex interplay between thermal, mechanical and chemical processes from the smallest scales of the material (electronic structure) through to the geometry of the battery cell and pack design. Improvements to the component materials used in batteries and capacitors are fundamental to providing the advances in performance needed. Materials Studio provides new functionality to enable the simula- tion of key materials parameters for both liquid electrolytes and electrode components. -

Linear scaling methods, or O(N) methods, have computational and memory requirements which scale linearly with the number of atoms in the system, N, in contrast to standard approaches which scale with the cube of the number of atoms. These methods, which rely on the short-ranged nature of electronic structure, will allow accurate, ab initio simulations of systems of unprecedented size. The theory behind the locality of electronic structure is described and related to physical properties of systems to be modelled, along with a survey of recent developments in real-space methods which are important for efficient use of high performance computers. The linear scaling methods proposed to date can be divided into seven different areas, and the applicability, efficiency and advantages of the methods proposed in these areas is then discussed. The applications of linear scaling methods, as well as the implementations available as computer programs, are considered. Finally, the prospects for and the challenges facing linear scaling methods are discussed. Submitted to: Rep. Prog. Phys. arXiv:1108.5976v5 [cond-mat.mtrl-sci] 3 Nov 2011 O(N) Methods 2 1. -

Virt&L-Comm.3.2012.1
Virt&l-Comm.3.2012.1 A MODERN APPROACH TO AB INITIO COMPUTING IN CHEMISTRY, MOLECULAR AND MATERIALS SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGIES ANTONIO LAGANA’, DEPARTMENT OF CHEMISTRY, UNIVERSITY OF PERUGIA, PERUGIA (IT)* ABSTRACT In this document we examine the present situation of Ab initio computing in Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies applications. To this end we give a short survey of the most popular quantum chemistry and quantum (as well as classical and semiclassical) molecular dynamics programs and packages. We then examine the need to move to higher complexity multiscale computational applications and the related need to adopt for them on the platform side cloud and grid computing. On this ground we examine also the need for reorganizing. The design of a possible roadmap to establishing a Chemistry Virtual Research Community is then sketched and some examples of Chemistry and Molecular and Materials Science and Technologies prototype applications exploiting the synergy between competences and distributed platforms are illustrated for these applications the middleware and work habits into cooperative schemes and virtual research communities (part of the first draft of this paper has been incorporated in the white paper issued by the Computational Chemistry Division of EUCHEMS in August 2012) INTRODUCTION The computational chemistry (CC) community is made of individuals (academics, affiliated to research institutions and operators of chemistry related companies) carrying out computational research in Chemistry, Molecular and Materials Science and Technology (CMMST). It is to a large extent registered into the CC division (DCC) of the European Chemistry and Molecular Science (EUCHEMS) Society and is connected to other chemistry related organizations operating in Chemical Engineering, Biochemistry, Chemometrics, Omics-sciences, Medicinal chemistry, Forensic chemistry, Food chemistry, etc. -
