Computational chemistry was able to develop thanks to two major advances first was the understanding and formulation of a mathematical description of the microscopic behavior of matter, and second was the technical development of computers much more powerful than mechanical desk calculators. A large part of the foundation of the mathematical theory was laid by the physics community in Europe in the 1920s. The University of Gottingen in Germany became a center of the new quantum mechanics.

In the past, the optimization program has been run not only on IBM machines but also on a INTEL-PARAGON in Jiilich and KSR-1 computers at Gottingen, Hannover and Braunschweig and especially on workstation clusters at the Technical University of Braunschweig. To this end, adapted communications subroutines are incorporated in the code, depending on the computing array used.
