Subject: Compiling CADPAC on Linux using Portland Group compiler


Dear all,

Has anyone managed to successfully compile Cadpac6 on a linux machine using
the Portland Group compiler?  I would like to get hold of a working
Makefile for either the standard compiler or the high performance
auto-parallelising version.

Cheers,

Darren Andrews.

I am not sure whether this would meet your needs... but
NIST maintains and distributes a massive database of
actual mass spec data.  This is distributed with something
like 80% of mass spec instruments as an aid to identifying
molecules.

If you are interested, you should be able to get information
at www.nist.gov.  Let me know if you need help finding
this information.

Best regards,

if our programs are, what you are searching for. We have a series

Joe,

There is a commercial program which will allow you to draw a structure and
ask for either a one or two bond fragmentation pattern and it will then
generate all of the fragments from the drawing.  It is produced by
WindowChem, I think.  It is also about $300 or so depending on which version
you get.  We use it in my lab and find it quite helpful.  The web site is:

Hope this helps.

Dear Netters,
I have a question concerning molecular ions (singly, positively charged). 
I would appreciate if someone can point out the references where I can get
info on how to obtain 
dipole and magnetic moments for such ions. I remember reading that dipole
moment is not 
uniquely defined in such an ion, but I need to know more. 
Also, does anyone know references concerning MW studies of such ions?
Many thanks!

REPLIES:

In a nutshell: Speed-wise, the fastest Pentium II systems are on par,
if not faster, than (many of ) the SGI, IBM, DEC workstations/servers.  On
a bang-per-buck basis, that places the commodity-type machines WAY ahead
of the latter computers.  

Of course, then there are the Alpha based clones (to be had for <$3,000),
which are much faster again... but compilation of G9x for Alpha/Linux is
not trivial, as this platform is not (yet) supported by Gaussian, Inc., 
as far as I know.

You may be interested in our G94 benchmark paper that just came out:
"Computational Chemistry on Commodity-Type Computers", Nicklaus, M.C.
et al., J. Chem. Inf. Comput. Sci. 38(5), 893-905 (1998).
I can send you a reprint if you want; please let me know.

If you have a subscription to JCICS, you can also get it of the ACS Web
site, at http://pubs.acs.org/journals/jcisd8/index.html.

Hope this helped.

Before you invest all the money in new hardware, consider a performance
gain you
could also see from new software.  Not Gaussian, but Jaguar
(www.schrodinger.com).  Particularly for systems as large as you describe. 
Jaguar doesn't have as many features as Gaussian but it generally runs
faster
(sometimes much faster) for singlepoint energies and geometry
optimizations,
especially for systems that large.  Other types of calculations are also
faster,
due to the methodologies unique to Jaguar which speed up the evaluation of
2-
electron integrals.  You might be able to demo it to see if there is a
significant advantage for your own needs.

Dear CCLers,

As a computational chemist, I was really excited that the Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded to
computational/theoretical chemists this year. I have been invited to give
a lecture to the public on what the impact is of computational chemistry.

I'd be very grateful if you can direct me to some successful stories of computational
chemistry related to drug design and material sciences. It is better that these stories
are understandable to the general public.

Thank you in advance.
