PLATO (computational chemistry)

PLATO (Package for Linear-combination of ATomic Orbitals) is a suite of programs designed and written by Andrew Horsfield and Steven Kenny. Capabilities of the program include a tight-binding algorithm, and a crystals), however it is also possible to treat isolated molecules. PLATO was written with speed of calculation as a priority, and uses numerical basis sets and tables of pre-computed one- and two-centered overlap integrals.
