The Encyclopedia of Computational Chemistry Home Page Aims and Scope Computational chemistry has become one of the mainstays of modern industrial and academic chemistry. Computer methods are now used to solve chemical problems that would be intractable or even impossible experimentally.
Computational chemistry accounts for roughly a third of the supercomputer usage worldwide.
The Encyclopedia of Computational Chemistry will consist of contributions from over 300 leading computational chemists. This five volume reference work, analogous to Wiley's Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry, the Encyclopedia of Reagents for Organic Synthesis, and the Encyclopedia of Nuclear Magnetic Resonance is intended to fill the gap between textbooks and series published over many years. It will be the most modern, complete and authoritative reference work on the subject. Both the methods themselves and their scope of application will be described. Leading references to key reviews and seminal papers will guide readers to sources of more detailed information.
