OOPSE |
2 |
|
|
|

|
|
OOPSE is an open-source Object-Oriented Parallel Simulation Engine. |
4 |
|
|
It is primarily used to perform molecular dynamics simulations on |
5 |
|
|
"strange" atom types that are not normally handled by other simulation |
6 |
|
|
packages. This includes atoms with orientational degrees of freedom |
7 |
|
|
(point dipoles, sticky atoms), as well as transition metals under the |
8 |
|
|
Embedded Atom Method (EAM). |
9 |
|
|
|
10 |
|
|
Input files are handled using the (included) Bizarre Atom Simulation |
11 |
|
|
Syntax (BASS) library. |

What you need to compile and use OOPSE: |
14 |
|
|
|
15 |
|
|
1) Good C, C++ and Fortran95 compilers. We've built and tested OOPSE |
16 |

on the following architecture & compiler combinations: |

|
We've successfully compiled OOPSE with gcc and g++, as well as |
26 |
|
|
pgcc and pgCC in linux environments. However, you will need to |
27 |
|
|
use a Fortran *95* compler for the fortran side of OOPSE, and |
28 |
|
|
pgf90 does not implement the required portions of the f95 |
29 |
|
|
language. Fortran77 and Fortran90 (i.e. g77 and pgf90) are *not* |
30 |
|
|
sufficient to compile the fortran portions of OOPSE. |

2) The Scalable Parallel Random Number Generators Library (SPRNG). You |
33 |
gezelter |
1366 |
can obtain SPRNG here: http://sprng.cs.fsu.edu/ |
34 |
gezelter |
1365 |
SPRNG is a *requirement* for compiling OOPSE. |

3) MPI. We like MPICH. Other implementations might work, but we |
37 |
|
|
haven't tried. You can get MPICH here: |
38 |
|
|
http://www-unix.mcs.anl.gov/mpi/mpich/ |
39 |
|
|
MPI is only required if you want a parallel version of OOPSE. |

4) Assorted unix utilities (lexx, yacc, make) or their GNU |
42 |
|
|
equivalents. The Gnu version of make is pretty much a requirement on |
43 |
|
|
SGI machines. |
