Overview
Features of Batchman:
In addition to the graphic interface with (MOPAC V6,
GAMESS and Babel), the major features are:
 |
- Run calculations as serial jobs like in a batch mode.
- Distribute the calculation tasks across a network. Jobs can be carried out on various
connected computers and the results are automatically centralized. This greatly reduces
the computing time required.
- Easily display and edit the input files and allow the modification of keywords on a whole
series of files. This option is of particular utility when handling a large number
of files provided by a conformational analysis.
- Monitor the status of calculation and save the results under a table in a file which can
be in HTML format.
- Allow an interface with a third party additional program which can start with a the name
of input file in the command line.
- Runs on Windows 9x and NT.

BatchMan appears very practical as well for the
execution of a simple quantum calculations as for the processing of a great number of
files on several PC across a network.
