The aim of the Australasian Computational and Simulation Commons (ACSC) is to consolidate, store and distribute high-value Quantum Mechanical (QM) and simulation data.
Data derived from Quantum Mechanical (QM) calculations on individual molecules together with computer simulations of the dynamic behaviour of complex molecular systems play a central role in areas ranging from drug and materials design to understanding the function of cellular components. The results of these calculations, often accumulated over decades, have general and long-term value. This project will consolidate the data held in local repositories across Australia, and make it accessible to all.

Core features


Who is this project for?
- Research organisations
- Researchers
- Government agencies
- Secondary and tertiary educators
What does this project enable?
The ACSC will build on two existing national scale data assets: the Automated Topology Builder (ATB) molecular repository and the ATB simulation repository. Consolidation of data will facilitate the development and validation of methodology, aid the interpretation of experimental data, and provide a starting point for future research. The consolidated data asset will open new avenues of research and ensure high level computational data is accessible to all.
