Dear Netter

  I want to know the reference paper about ab initio (theory and method).
I am doing molecular dynamics, and I want to develope potential parameter
in special cases.

Not sure what you mean by this. Are you seeking an alternative
to Chemical Abstracts or ISI? Are you expecting the service to
cost or to be free?

There are two global keyword searchers, namely Lycos and Infoseek,
although they do not structure by author etc, since the header
specifications in HTML do not carry such fields. I guess
only so called Z39.50 specifications have such these fields, and I
am not sure if any Z39.50 implementations for specifically
chemical literature exist.

Anyway, do CAS and ISI not offer what you want?

	I have a pointer to some bibliographic databases at 
http://www.chem.surrey.ac.uk/~ch11mh/databases.html

This includes Medline, LITDB (in Japan) and a link to a gopher in Russia 
which has been down for a while but had chemical abstracts and patents 
from 1981 to 1991. It worked earlier in the year and was extremely useful 
for my final year project. It was however very slow.

	Good Luck,

		Regards,
			Martin.

I don't know of any such beast, but this is a great idea.  With all the
departmental and personal archives on the net, it would sure be nice
if there were some standard ways to communicate a structured query
to make things like Lycos and WebCrawler more intelligent.

What is the Los Alamos Internet archive doing for search and access tools?

A program called Harvest;
http://harvest.cs.colorado.edu/brokers/www-home-pages/query.html
holds much promise in this regard. In principle, if a global
chemically oriented Harvester were to start up, then all
chemical sites could make themselves known to it. Harvest works
on the principle that remote sites put up a configuration file
that informs the Harvest robot that new material exists,
or indeed has disappeared from any particular site. However,
it does not solve the problem of tagging chemically useful
information within the documents. To do this, we need to
impart far more chemical "structure" to the basic documents
than we do now.

Peter Murray-Rust will be presenting a paper at the
ACS "Chemical Infobahn" symposium on August 21 on one
model for how this might be achieved.  Also,
the hyperglossary pioneered in the Principles of Protein
Science course;
http://www.cryst.bbk.ac.uk/PPS/index.html
shows how such structuring can be accomplished within
specified boundary conditions.
This principle is extended in
http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/ectoc/glossary/  and
http://www.ch.ic.ac.uk/ectoc/papers/leach/
to other models of chemical information, including SMILES
strings etc.

The development of such chemical structures may indeed be
one of the most important challenges facing chemical
users of the Web over the next few years.

Dear collegues,

Is there any code available which represents the force field
(such as ECEPP,CHARMm) or molecular volume of a protein by a grid?


Happy weekend !
