Scalability of LocalSCF energy calculation by CPU time. AM1 - single point; Pentium 4 2.4GHz, 1.5GB RAM, Windows 2000.

True variational linear scaling method:

  • Retains high accuracy for short localized molecular orbitals (the shorter the LMOs the less RAM is consumed).

  • Provides an optimal user-controllable balance between speed and accuracy.

  • The built-in mechanism for accuracy validation allows comparison of molecular properties in connection with particular keyword options.
