Abstract
This article describes a gradient algorithm for the computational optimization of model molecular structures, and discusses the various compromises inherent in the practical expression of the algorithm in a Fortran computer program (VULCAN) for both sequential and parallel computers. Details are given of some previously undiscussed properties of gradient algorithms; various acceleration techniques are compared: and some traps for the unwary are highlighted.
