Linear-scaling DFT method

In order to perform reliable simulations on very large systems, such as nano-structured materials, nano-scaled catalysts, and bio-systems, NIMS-CMSU has been developing a linear-scaling DFT method (http://www.linear-scaling.org). With this method, we can employ DFT calculations on systems containing more than tens or hundreds of thousands of atoms.
