| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Algorithms for massively parallel quantum chemistry calculations were developed and implemented, and the developed program SMASH was released under the open source (Apache 2.0) license. It shows high parallel efficiency and CPU performance on 100,000 CPU cores of the K Computer. It is practical to calculate electronic structures and geometries of large molecules with relatively high accuracy. Frequently used routines such as one- and two-electron integral calculations are modularized to reuse easily. As applications, the structures of nano-sized gold clusters were calculated accurately, and the activation energy calculation of a chemical reaction using first-principle molecular dynamics was performed by combining with another program.
