  • Abstract
    To meet the high computing-power and memory requirements of applying the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method to complex problems, the authors have parallelized the FP-LAPW code WIEN97 for distributed-memory machines. They then implemented the parallel code on a Cray T3E
