Scope

Element strategy is one of the key issues for sustainable development of our society. Expectations for contributions from the field of computational materials science and technology are strongly increasing since there are rapid progresses of high-performance computers and computational techniques. Reflecting these situations, this symposium focuses on (1) element strategies as applications of computational techniques, (2) advanced computational techniques for higher accuracies, (3) high-performance computing techniques to utilize large computer facilities, (4) multi-scale modeling and/or large-scale simulation for tackling practical materials issues, (5) materials informatics as a complementary to computation itself, and (6) simulations of spectroscopies and other measurements.

Topics

1. Element strategies with computational techniques
2. Advanced computational techniques such as GW, BSE, hybrid functionals, vdW-DFT, etc.
3. High-performance computing
4. Multi-scale modeling and/or large-scale simulation of structures, properties, dynamics, etc. in realistic materials
5. Materials informatics
6. Simulations of spectroscopies and other measurements
