This NATO Advanced Study Institute was concerned with modern ab
initio methods for the determination of the electronic structure of
molecules. Recent years have seen considerable progress in computer
technology and computer science and these developments have had a
very significant influence on computational molecular physics.
Progress in computer technology has led to increasingly larger and
faster systems as well as powerful minicomputers. Simultaneous
research in computer science has explored new methods for the
optimal use of these resources. To a large extent develop ments in
computer technology, computer science and computational molecular
physics have been mutually dependent. The availability of new
computational resources, particularly minicomputers and, more
recently, vector processors, has stimulat'ed a great deal of
research in molecular physics. Well established techniques have
been reformulated to make more efficient use of the new computer
technology and algorithms which were previously computationally
intractable have now been successfully implemented. This research
has given a new and exciting insight into molecular structure and
molecular processes by enabling smaller systems to be studied in
greater detail and larger systems to be studied for the first
time."
