    DataGraph:- 2D data analysis and plotting

    At the recent WWDC 2006 there was a discussion about the need for a simple 2D plotting tool, to meet this need David Adalsteinsson the author of the scientific visualisation tool DataTank has created DataGraph (formally known as DataPlot) a great new 2D plotting tool with the design philosophy "Simple and Powerful Plotting". I've written a review for MacResearch and you can read a copy here.

    A DataGraph.framework can be downloaded here. This allows you to use DataGraph as a graphing engine in your own program. This is works independent of DataGraph, but you need a license in order to make use of it.

    DataTank :- Data analysis and visualisation

    DataTank is designed for scientific visualization, data mining and algorithm development, but it is flexible enough to be used for a variety of other uses as well. DataTank enables interactive exploration of large data sets. Variables and relationships are defined graphically and built in modules can be combined with your own modules. DataTank will manage memory and perform incremental evaluation, treating data sets with millions of data points and hundreds of thousands of entries the same way as a simple data set that is typed in manually. To make this possible DataTank uses caching extensively, both in memory and on disk..

    EON :- Compare molecular electrostatics

    EON is an electrostatics comparison program - it compares electrostatic potential maps of aligned molecules and determines the Tanimoto measures for the comparison. Thus databases of molecules can be screened for electrostatic similarity to a lead compound. Since the input molecules must already be aligned, EON is suitable for analyzing the output structures from programs such as ROCS, thus yielding compounds with similar shape and electrostatics. EON should contribute significantly to lead generation and library desigm.

      GAMESS :- Ab Initio

      The General Atomic and Molecular Electronic Structure System (GAMESS) is a general ab initio quantum chemistry package. GAMESS is a program for ab initio molecular quantum chemistry. Briefly, GAMESS can compute SCF wavefunctions ranging from RHF, ROHF, UHF, GVB, and MCSCF. Correlation corrections to these SCF wavefunctions include Configuration Interaction, second order Perturbation Theory, and Coupled-Cluster approaches, as well as the Density Functional Theory approximation. Nuclear gradients are available, for automatic geometry optimization, transition state searches, or reaction path following. Computation of the energy hessian permits prediction of vibrational frequencies, with IR or Raman intensities. Solvent effects may be modeled by the discrete Effective Fragment Potentials, or continuum models such as the Polarizable Continuum Model. Numerous relativistic computations are available, including third order Douglas-Kroll scalar corrections, and various spin-orbit coupling options. The Fragment Molecular Orbital method permits use of many of these sophisticated treatments to be used on very large systems, by dividing the computation into small fragments.
      A variety of molecular properties, ranging from simple dipole moments to frequency dependent hyperpolarizabilities may be computed. Many basis sets are stored internally, together with effective core potentials, so all elements up to Radon may be included in molecules. Most computations can be performed using direct techniques, or in parallel on appropriate hardware. Graphics programs, particularly the MacMolPlt program for the Macintosh, are available for viewing of the final results.

A variety of force fields can be used within GULP spanning the shell model for ionic materials, molecular mechanics for organic systems, the embedded atom model for metals and the reactive REBO potential for hydrocarbons. Analytic derivatives are included up to at least second order for most force fields, and to third order for many.
