DGDFT: A massively parallel method for large scale density functional theory calculations.
We describe a massively parallel implementation of the recently developed discontinuous Galerkin density functional theory (DGDFT) method, for efficient large-scale Kohn-Sham DFT based electronic structure calculations. The DGDFT method uses adaptive local basis (ALB) functions generated on-the-fly during the self-consistent field iteration to represent the solution to the Kohn-Sham equations. ...
متن کاملMassively Parallel Density Functional Theory Calculations of Large Transition Metal Clusters
We report on ab initio density functional theory (DFT) calculations of structural properties of large elementary transition metal clusters with up to 561 atoms, corresponding to a diameter of about 2.5 nm, which is a relevant size for practical applications. The calculations were carried out on an IBM Blue Gene/L supercomputer, showing that reasonable scaling up to 1024 processors and beyond ca...

متن کاملA subquadratic-scaling subspace projection method for large-scale Kohn-Sham density functional theory calculations using spectral finite-element discretization
We present a subspace projection technique to conduct large-scale Kohn-Sham density functional theory calculations using higher-order spectral finite-element discretization. The proposed method treats both metallic and insulating materials in a single framework, and is applicable to both pseudopotential as well as all-electron calculations. The key ideas involved in the development of this meth...
متن کاملCP - PACS : A massively parallel processor for large scale scienti c calculations
CP-PACS (Computational Physics by Parallel Array Computer System) is a massively parallel processor with 2048 processing units built at Center for Computational Physics, University of Tsukuba. It has an MIMD architecture with distributed memory system. The node processor of CPPACS is a RISC microprocessor enhanced by Pseudo Vector Processing feature, which can realize high-performance vector pr...
