Bernasconi - N.M. Harrison - G. Mallia The Department of Chemistry and the Thomas Young Centre at Imperial College London and the Computational Materials Science Group of the Science and Technology Facilities Council (STFC), in collaboration with the Theoretical Chemistry Group of the University of Torino, are organizing the 2016 MSSC Summer School on the "ab initio modelling of crystalline and defective solids with the CRYSTAL code". The week long school is designed for new users of CRYSTAL, PhD students, Post-Docs and researchers with interests in solid state chemistry, physics, materials science, surface science, catalysis, magnetism and nano-science. It will provide an introduction to the capabilities of quantum mechanical simulations and to the practical use of CRYSTAL. One of the aims of the workshop is to learn how to run efficiently the CRYSTAL code in parallel, both for the replicated data and the distributed data implementation (Pcrystal versus MPPcrystal). This year we offer to the participants the opportunity to run the tutorial exercises on their clusters, in addition to the local computational resources. If necessary, help in the installation of the binaries, the scripts to run the crystal code and the queue systems will be provided before the workshop. The new features of CRYSTAL17 will be presented. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ Deadline for payment of reduced fees: Friday 9th September If you register before Friday, you are still entitled to have a reduction. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
