QMC=Chem is a massively parallel quantum Monte Carlo program, developed using IRPF90, EZFIO. Parallelism is handled in OCaml, and network communications are performed with the ØMQ library, with the F77_ZMQ binding.

Features

  • Asynchronous design. Tested with up to 76 800 cores (4 800 nodes)
  • Fault tolerance
  • Very low memory footprint/core
  • Highly Optimized for Intel processors (AVX and AVX2)
  • Can handle ~100 000 Slater determinants
  • Works with Xeon Phi
