第一届XACS研习会
第一届厦门原子计算套件(XACS)研习会将于2022年4月22日至24日在厦门大学举办。XACS研习会的前身是由厦门大学先期主办的XMVB研习会。受疫情影响，本次研习会将以线上/线下相结合的形式举行，参会者主要以线上形式参会，仅厦门大学师生以线下形式参会。
本次研习会为期三天，暂定日程如下:
第1天（4月22日）：XMVB研习会
上午：讲座
下午：上机练习
第2天（4月23日）：XEDA研习会
上午：讲座
下午：上机练习
第3天（4月24日）：MLatom研习会
上午：讲座
下午：上机练习。我们将教授如何构建和使用ML模型，包括最先进的AIQM1方法(http://mlatom.com/AIQM1/)
本次研习会仅面向中国参会者，学员无需缴纳费用，但名额有限（包括最多50名线上学员和30名线下学员）。如需参会，请于2022年4月20日前将报名信息发送至xmvb@xmu.edu.cn。
期待您的参与！
什么是XACS？
厦门原子计算套件（XACS）由厦门大学开发，致力于为理论计算化学工作者提供一套高效、友好且富有特色的量子化学与人工智能原子计算软件包。XACS主要包括三个核心软件：
XMVB：基于价键理论的量子化学程序
XEDA：多用途能量分解分析程序
MLatom：原子模拟和机器学习软件包
为方便用户使用，XACS提供了云计算和其他实用量子化学计算工具。用户无需下载和安装软件包，就能在线进行XACS计算。
为了推动全球相关领域的研究和软件开发，开发团队面对学术和非商业用途（如教育和研究）用户免费提供XACS软件包和云计算服务。同时，团队将定期举办XACS相关理论的培训并提供上机练习。

The 1st XACS Workshop
We will hold the first XACS workshop on 22-24 April 2022. The predecessors of XACS workshops were XMVB workshops hosted by Xiamen University. XACS workshop will be hybrid online/offline domestic (i.e., held for participants in China) event with offline part only for Xiamen University staff and students due to the current epidemic situation.
This 3-day workshop has the following tentative schedule:
Day 1 (Fri., 22 April): XMVB workshop
morning: lectures
afternoon: practical tutorials
Day 2 (Sat., 23 April): XEDA workshop
morning: lectures
afternoon: practical tutorials
Day 3 (Sun., 24 April): MLatom workshop
morning: lectures
afternoon: practical tutorials. We will teach how to build and use ML models including the state-of-the-art AIQM1 approach!
Hurry up to register to the workshop! It is free, but the number of places is limited (up to 50 online and 30 offline participants). In addition, our first workshop is limited to the participants in China. In order to register, please send email to xmvb@xmu.edu.cn. Deadline for registration is 20 April 2022.
Look forward to welcoming you!
What is XACS?
The mission behind the Xiamen Atomistic Computing Suite (XACS) is to provide theoretical and computational chemists with efficient, friendly and unique atomistic computing software packages for quantum chemical and artificial intelligence calculations of atomistic systems with the main development base at Xiamen University, China.
At present, XACS contains three core packages:
XMVB - A Valence Bond Theory Based Quantum Chemistry Program
XEDA - A General and Multipurpose Energy Decomposition Analysis Program
MLatom - A Package for Atomistic Simulations with Machine Learning
XACS also provides other practical quantum chemical calculation tools.
XACS also provides cloud computing services for our three core software packages. Users can perform online calculations with XACS packages without downloading and installing them. In order to promote research and software development in relevant fields around the world, we provide free XACS packages and cloud computing services for academic and non-commercial purposes (such as education and research). In addition, we will hold regular XACS workshops, where the users can learn relevant theories and obtain practical skills in performing computations.
