TL;DR: QUANTUM ESPRESSO as discussed by the authors is an integrated suite of computer codes for electronic-structure calculations and materials modeling, based on density functional theory, plane waves, and pseudopotentials (norm-conserving, ultrasoft, and projector-augmented wave).
Abstract: QUANTUM ESPRESSO is an integrated suite of computer codes for electronic-structure calculations and materials modeling, based on density-functional theory, plane waves, and pseudopotentials (norm-conserving, ultrasoft, and projector-augmented wave). The acronym ESPRESSO stands for opEn Source Package for Research in Electronic Structure, Simulation, and Optimization. It is freely available to researchers around the world under the terms of the GNU General Public License. QUANTUM ESPRESSO builds upon newly-restructured electronic-structure codes that have been developed and tested by some of the original authors of novel electronic-structure algorithms and applied in the last twenty years by some of the leading materials modeling groups worldwide. Innovation and efficiency are still its main focus, with special attention paid to massively parallel architectures, and a great effort being devoted to user friendliness. QUANTUM ESPRESSO is evolving towards a distribution of independent and interoperable codes in the spirit of an open-source project, where researchers active in the field of electronic-structure calculations are encouraged to participate in the project by contributing their own codes or by implementing their own ideas into existing codes.

TL;DR: SIR97 is the integration of two programs, SIR92 and CAOS, the first devoted to the solution of crystal structures by direct methods, the second to refinement via least-squares–Fourier procedures.
Abstract: SIR97 is the integration of two programs, SIR92 and CAOS, the first devoted to the solution of crystal structures by direct methods, the second to refinement via least-squares–Fourier procedures. Several new features have been introduced in SIR97 with respect to the previous version, SIR92: greater automatization, increased efficiency of the direct methods section, and a powerful graphics interface. The program also provides publication tables and CIF files.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors derived crystal orbital Hamilton populations (COHP) diagrams to visualize chemical bonding in solids by means of density-functional electronic structure calculations, where the band structure energy is defined as a sum of orbital pair contributions.
Abstract: After giving a concise overview of the current knowledge in the field of quantum mechanical bonding indicators for molecules and solids, we show how to obtain energy-resolved visualization of chemical bonding in solids by means of density-functional electronic structure calculations. On the basis of a band structure energy partitioning scheme, i.e., rewriting the band structure energy as a sum of orbital pair contributions, we derive what is to be defined as crystal orbital Hamilton populations (COHP). In particular, a COHP(E) diagram indicates bonding, nonbonding, and antibonding energy regions within a specified energy range while an energy integral of a COHP gives access to the contribution of an atom or a chemical bond to the distribution of one-particle energies

TL;DR: The computer program LOBSTER (Local Orbital Basis Suite Towards Electronic‐Structure Reconstruction) enables chemical‐bonding analysis based on periodic plane‐wave density‐functional theory output and is applicable to a wide range of first‐principles simulations in solid‐state and materials chemistry.
Abstract: The computer program LOBSTER (Local Orbital Basis Suite Towards Electronic-Structure Reconstruction) enables chemical-bonding analysis based on periodic plane-wave (PAW) density-functional theory (DFT) output and is applicable to a wide range of first-principles simulations in solid-state and materials chemistry. LOBSTER incorporates analytic projection routines described previously in this very journal [J. Comput. Chem. 2013, 34, 2557] and offers improved functionality. It calculates, among others, atom-projected densities of states (pDOS), projected crystal orbital Hamilton population (pCOHP) curves, and the recently introduced bond-weighted distribution function (BWDF). The software is offered free-of-charge for non-commercial research. © 2016 The Authors. Journal of Computational Chemistry Published by Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
