Direct SCF structure optimization of large molecules on networks of workstations
Abstract
A program to optimize the structure of large molecules at the Hartree–Fock level of theory running concurrently on a network of workstations is presented. Problems encountered in obtaining nearly optimal speedup and their solutions are discussed. A simple scheduling algorithm is presented that enables up to 99.5% of the code to run in parallel. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
