What (exactly) is LINDA? Is it (merely) a message-passing library
a la PVM or MPI with a user-interface simulating a virtual shared
memory? What are you really paying for if you buy LINDA?

LINDA is known to me only in the context of parallel GAUSSIAN, so what
is the advantage of LINDA over PVM or MPI or other portable and
more-or-less standardized message passing systems? -- Does the combination
GAUSSIN/LINDA beat alternative implementations (e.g. with PVM) in terms
of speed or ease-of-use?

Such large MO coefficients can only arise if the overlap matrix has
a very small eigenvalue. Perhaps something went wrong with the
basis input?

Do you have diffuse functions in your basis set?  With the small C-C
distances in your molecule, diffuse functions may give
linear-dependence problems in the basis set.  Try deleting the most
diffuse function from each C atom, or try a code that will delete
functions automatically (e.g., Gaussian98, ACES II).

I hope this helps--good luck!

Linda is NOT just another message passing programming environment. 

Linda is a coordination language for parallel programming.  It is based on
the generative communication model proposed by David Gelernter and first
implemented by Nick Carriero -- both of Yale University.  It is (in my only
slightly biased opinion) one of the most elegant and effetive parallel
programming models available.

With Linda, processes interacts through 6 operations that write and read a
virtual shared memory called a tuple space.   These 6 operations are added
to a standard sequential programming language (C and Fortran --- I don't
know if they've got C++ done yet) to give you one of the simplest parallel
programming environments you can find. 

How about efficiency?  Well, using very clever compile time analysis (fully
described in Nick Carriero's Ph.D. dissertation and partially described in
one of my Linda papers -- "The efficiency of Linda for general purpose
Scientific Computing",
Scientific Programming, vol 3, p. 61 (1994)) the overhead due to management
of the tuple space is largely eliminated.  The result is that for many
applications, Linda performs as well as MPI or PVM. 

So to the programmer, Linda can be a God-send.  To the user of a parallel
program written by someone else, however, it doesn't make any significant
difference if a program was parallelized with Linda, PVM or MPI.  Its pretty
much all the same.

If you have further questions (or better yet, disagreements --- I love
contorversy), feel free to email me.

--Tim Mattson 

P.S. In the spirit of full disclosure, I used to work with Scientific
Computing Associates.  I left just as the Gaussian project was getting off
the ground.

P.P.S. Of course, these opinions are my own and in now way reflect the view
of my current employer.

Hello Roberta,
two databases from MDL provide some information about metabolites:
1) METABOLITE database
This database contains bibliographic references to all the known metabolites
known from a specific molecule. It allows you to input the 2D structure of your 'parent'
molecule and search for  known metabolites of your parent structure (if any).
2) TOXICOLOGY database
This contains tox data once again will allow to input your 2D structure and search
for known data (which is stored in this database).
MDL has already linked these two databases. You can effortlessly switch from
database 1) to 2) and vice versa.
You should contact your MDL sales rep in your area. Both databases assume that
you already have ISIS/Base & ISIS/Draw.
http://www.mdli.com
I hope this helps
Carlos

Subject: high-quality GAMESS-US basis set for iodine?
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

Having reviewed past CCL messages on the subject, I'm aware of the fact
that the question has been asked before--but no good answer to be
found...  Is it possible that there are none available?  The oft-cited
PNL site offers a bunch of basis sets for iodine:

STO-3G
3-21G
MIDI!
WTBS
Sadlej pVTZ
LANL2DZ ECP
SBKJC VDZ ECP
CRENBL ECP
Stuttgart RLC ECP
DZVP (DFT Orbital)
DeMon Coulomb Fitting
DGauss A1 DFT Coulomb Fitting
DGauss A1 DFT Exchange Fitting
Ahlrichs Coulomb Fitting
Huzinaga Polarization

but, at least to my untrained eye, none of them seem to be of high
quality, esp. if an all-electron basis set ready-made for use in
GAMESS-US is sought.  The Sadlej pTZV set is not well optimized, at
least based on my reading of the attached comments. I don't want to (or
can't) use ECP and DFT bases, don't know anything about the last two.

Why the problem?  Somebody was asking why [ICl2]- is linear, and I tried
to use the GAMESS-US/MolDen duo to take a look at the orbitals, bonds
etc., and noticed that the bond length at the 3-21G(d) level is wrong by
0.07 A.  And then started looking for a better basis set, and...couldn't
find it.  I realize the general picture at the HF/3-21G(d) level should
be correct, but I'd love to have something closer to 6-311+G(d)
basis--or better.

What do the professionals use to get good geometries and energies of
iodine compounds, even as simple as HI?  How much better can MIDI! be
than 3-21G* in this situation? Is my aversion to ECP justified?  I
appreciate any comments.

I should note that doing such calculations are just a hobby to me to
better understand the compounds I'm working with in an otherwise very
practical millieu...

Happy Y2K to everybody!
