This page lists links to the web sites which have information about software and software developers (academic centers, national labs, industrial companies and individuals). If such information is available we indicate whether software is non-commercial (but you may need to sign a license agreement), commercial or semi-commercial (e.g. free for academia and commercial for companies). Some software packages include several applications, e.g. visualization and classical and quantum mechanical computational engines. Such programs can be listed in several sections below, which are grouped as:
