              Announcement of Increase in Speed of MOPAC2012

Although MOPAC has been under continuous development over the past thirty
plus years, there have been only small increases in speed in the main,
i.e. non-MOZYME, methods. Various attempts have been made over this period
to make MOPAC run faster. The latest attempt, by a research group headed by
Prof. Dr. Gerd B. Rocha at the Federal University of Paraiba, Brazil, has
been successful. Two modifications have been made: many of the old, slower,
operations have been replaced by the Intel Math Kernel Library, and sections
of the code have been parallelized to take advantage of multi-threading.

Details of the modifications can be found at: HTTP://WWW.QUANTUM-CHEM.PRO.BR/

These changes have resulted in an increase in speed, as shown in the following
table:

                             
Times, in seconds, for a single-point calculation run on a 2 x 2.93 GHz
6-Core Intel Xeon with 16Gb of 1333 DDR3 memory chips Mac Pro computer,

In MOPAC, proteins can be modeled using the MOZYME technique, however, that
technique is limited to closed shell RHF calculations. This means that proteins
with free radical sites, excited state proteins, and proteins containing iron,
chromium or other transition metal atoms should not be modeled using MOZYME.

The new MOPAC reduces the computation time so that conventional MOPAC methods
can now be used for many proteins. This means that it is now practical to use
conventional MOPAC methods - RHF-CI and UHF - for modeling most of the smaller
proteins, and by implication that it will be possible to model many systems that
currently cannot or should not be modeled using MOZYME.

The improved MOPAC is available in the usual forms: Windows, Linux, and Mac, and

benchmarks and an application in biomolecules, can be found in the following publication:

Dear CCLers:

It is very easy to = include such a field in the quantum calculations using e.g. gaussian but I = am wondering how I can relate such microscopic fields to the macroscopic fi= eld. The used atomic units sound extremely large.

Thank you very much for your advice.
