DCS SEMINAR SERIES

Fast food for computational chemists! (A programmable cross-platform environment)

Ganesh Venkateshwara (SoCS, ANU)


DATE: 2009-11-05
TIME: 16:00:00 - 17:00:00
LOCATION: CSIT Seminar Room, N101



ABSTRACT:
A sizable number of computational chemists (physicists, biologists and material scientists alike) use a wide variety of tools to perform computation, visualization and presentation. Many a times these are incompatible with each other, necessitating reliance on, often cumbersome, external tools to perform appropriate conversions. A few of the computational chemists also use myriad programming environments to develop new computational codes or visualization tools. However, there is no environment that succinctly amalgamates programming environments and various tools available to a computational chemist, which many a times hinders easy integration and rapid application development.

In this talk, I present MeTA Studio, a programmable cross- platform environment for computational chemists that aims to address this issue.
