NanoToolkit
NanoToolkit is an example of science gateway that has been recently developed and deployed under the PL-Grid infrastructure project. In fact, it was a joint research and development effort with researchers interested in collaborative, Web2.0 and large-scale simulation studies based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Many-Body Perturbation Theory. Thus, a key software package called ABINIT was selected and many new and advanced web-based applications were created from scratch around it. Below are presented three of them, that enable edition and manipulation of crystal structures and large-scale simulation studies based on Density Functional Theory.
 | NanoBuilder - interface that allows to enter input data and generate geometry of crystallographic coordinates of at least one of the 230 symbols of symmetry group in the Hermann-Mauguin notation and lattice vectors and angles. Generated coordinates of all atoms in the cell in accordance with established symmetry can then be used to render the cell, which may be subjected to a process of further processing in the NanoEditor. |
 | NanoEditor - graphical tool that enables creating, processing super-cells and generating output files that can be further used in the Abinit package. By processing we mean cell replication operations, changing positions of certain atoms or groups of atoms within the cell, the addition of atoms and defining the vacuum. |
 | NanoSimulator - It is an example of science gateway that has been recently developed and deployed under the PL-Grid infrastructure project. In fact, it was a joint research and development effort with researchers interested in collaborative, Web2.0 and large-scale simulation studies based on Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Many-Body Perturbation Theory.

This site provides also File Manager and SSH Client, so you can manage all your files even from remote servers.
