Abstract

The challenges specific to the development of computational chemistry software are discussed. Selected solutions are presented, including examples of algorithmic optimizations and improved load-balancing for parallel calculations. A software framework for development of new quantum-chemical algorithms is proposed. Key design points are discussed. Optimization techniques are briefly described. Important implementation aspects, like automatic code generation, are highlighted.
