Introduction

 

The 14th Workshop on First-Principles Computational Materials Physics, organized by the Focus Group on Computational Materials Research (CMR), will be held on January 18-20, 2015, in Meeting Room, Huisun Forest Station, Nantou. The aim of this workshop is to promote interactions and collaborations among local physicists who employ first-principles electronic structure calculations in their research. This year's program will include plenary talks delivered by invited domestic or foreign scholars. The Program Committee would also like to take this opportunity to identify the community members' interests and concerns in order to plan fruitful and successful activities in the future. Similar to previous years, all participants, particularly PhD students and young postdoctors, are encouraged to share their latest research results. Fifteen or thirty-minute reports by faculty members and fifteen-minute talks by postdoctors or PhD students will be scheduled in the program, which also includes three to four invited papers on notable subjects.
