CPMD

CPMD is designed for perfoming plane-wave DFT molecular dynamics calculations on peroidic systems. More information can be found at the CPMD website.

Documentation

The CPMD manual is available online.

Running

A CPMD job is submitted to the cluster queuing system using the cpmdsub command. For example:

> cpmdsub -np 8 -q parallel-medium.q test

This would submit a CPMD job to the parallel-medium.q queue using 8 processors and the input in the file test. CPMD can run in serial or distributed memory form.

For more information on cpmdsub see the EaStCHEM Submission System User Guide.
