Description:
The purpose of the workshop is to make computational physicists and chemists more aware of the developed multiscale
approaches and their future potential. Conversely, the purpose will also be to bring experts in multiscale computations into
better acquaintance with the variety of scaling difficulties in various branches of computational chemistry. Hopefully, strong
interactions will emerge, leading to future collaborations.
Thus, the workshop program will consist of tutorials and review lectures by leading experts in multiscale methods and in major areas of computational chemistry, including in particular the following:
1.Molecular mechanics, including energy minimization and Monte-Carlo simulations of macromolecules, condensed matter and fluids. 2.Ab-initio quantum chemistry, emphasizing density functional approaches. 3.Monte-Carlo simulations of path integrals, including real-time paths with fermions. 4.Multigrid and multiscale methods, particularly in the above three areas.
The meeting is interdisciplinary, so efforts will be made to have the review lectures understandable to non-specialists. The emphasis will be on computational methods, not results.
