Overview

OpenMX (Open source package for Material eXplorer) is a software package for nano-scale material simulations based on density functional theories (DFT) , norm-conserving pseudopotentials and pseudo-atomic localized basis functions. <TBD>

Build

<how to build and run the application>

...

After extracting the files from the source3.962.tar.gz tarball, first create a directory called work and then go into the source3.962 directory. Edit the makefile for the compilers and MPI on the system you will be using. For example, on the HPC-AI Advisory Council’s Rome cluster, using Intel 2023.2 compilers, Intel MKL, and HPC-X 2.19, the following shows the differences between the modified makefile and the original one:

To build, just execute make install. If everything goes well, there will be an executable called openmx in the ../work directory you created earlier. (See also Installation tips.)

You will also need (at the same level where your work and source3.962 directories are), the DFT_DATA19 directory that contains the database needed by OpenMX.

Tasks and Submissions

You can practice building and running with a tiny input, Methane, below.

1. Run the application on 4 CPU nodes with the NVC input and submit the results in the team’s folder. Try varying the number of OpenMP threads per MPI rank for your optimal run.

2. Run MPI Profiler to profile the application, which 3 . Which three MPI calls are mostly used? present Include your work results in the teams team's interview ppt slides.

3. Visualize the results, create a short video that demonstrate the given input via paraview or any other tool.

4. <TBD>

...

3. OpenMXViewer (https://www.openmx-square.org/viewer/ just drag and drop). Include it in the team’s interview ppt slides. If you use have an X (Twitter) account, please tag the video/photo with your team name and the hashtags “#ISC25 #ISC25_SCC” prior to the team interview.
