274. CNINDO-DYNAM: CNDO and INDO Molecular Orbital Program with Dynamic Data Storage

by Alice Chung Phillips, Department of Chemistry, Miami University, Oxford, Ohio 45056

This program is a modification of QCPE 141. Modifications include: 1. conversion of the old main routine and part of subroutine INTGRL to the new main routine and subroutine DYNAM1; 2. replacement of the old subroutine COEFFT with the new functions Y and Z and subroutine FIND; and 3. correction of certain ill- defined limits for DO loops in the old subroutines HUCKOP, SCFOPN, and OPRINT.

The special feature of this program is dynamic data storage. In the subprograms, the arrays originally stored in COMMON /ARRAYS/, /INFO/, /GAB/, and /INFO1/ of CNINDO are converted to dynamic arrays or arrays with variable dimensions. The integer variables used to specify these dimensions are NATOMS, the number of atoms, and N, the number of atomic orbitals. In the main program, the dynamic arrays are placed end-to-end into a single storage block. The individual dimensions of the arrays are no longer declared explicitly. Instead, the size of the storage block, NTOTAL, is specified. NTOTAL is an integer constant and may be changed before each execution. NTOTAL also represents the maximum storage allocated for all the dynamic arrays. The storage actually occupied by the dynamic arrays in the storage block, ITOTAL, is equal to M, M+1,or M+2words, whereM = NATOMS(10+2NATOMS)+N(15+6N). With this formula, a user may estimate ITOTAL for the molecules involved and assign a proper number of words to NTOTAL, provided NTOTAL > ITOTAL.

In the QCPE version of CNINDO-DYNAM, NTOTAL is chosen as 25,000 words. The size of the storage block is defined by the statements "Integer*4 A", "REAL*8 B", "DIMENSION A (25000)", "DIMENSION B (12500)", and "EQUIVALENCE (A(1),B(1))". Note that the number of elements in B is one-half of that in A. To change the amount of storage allocated for the dynamic arrays, simply change the number in the two DIMENSION statements described here and in the statement "NTOTAL=25000". These changes require very little effort, since all three statements concerned appear in the main routine only.

The program no longer has specific limits for NATOMS and N. (In CNINDO, the respective limits are 35 and 80.) The present limit is for ITOTAL. This limit is just NTOTAL, a number the user sets up to suit his own needs. For NTOTAL=25000 words, the limiting molecule is somewhere between C9H20 and C10H22. Also, the program requires 192 Kb of core storage without overlay and 154 Kb with overlay. An overlay deck is provided.

Documentation of the program appears as COMMENT statements in the main routine and subroutine DUMMY. The latter is to be removed for execution. Two test decks are provided, ethane (CNDO CLSD) and allyl radical (INDO OPEN).
