Originally, VASP was based on code written by Mike Payne (then at [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology|MIT]]), which was also the basis of [[CASTEP]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://cms.mpi.univie.ac.at/vasp/vasp/History_VASP.html |title=History of VASP|author=Martijn Marsman |accessdate=April 30, 2012 |date=October 14, 2011}}</ref> It was then brought to the [[University of Vienna]], Austria, in July 1989 by [[Jürgen Hafner]]. The main program was written by [[Jürgen Furthmüller]], who joined the group at the [[Institut für Materialphysik]] in January 1993, and Georg Kresse. VASP is currently being developed by [[Georg Kresse]]; recent additions include the extension of methods frequently used in molecular [[quantum chemistry]] (such as [[Møller–Plesset perturbation theory|MP2]] and [[Coupled cluster|CCSD(T)]]) to periodic system.

VASP is currently used by more than 1400 research groups in academia and industry worldwide on the basis of software licence agreements with the University of Vienna. Preconfigured and installed Vienna Ab initio Simulation Package binaries as well as several public simulation projects are available to be forked and executed on cloud HPC infrastructure including multi-core, multi-node and GPU machines.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://kogence.com/app/docs/Model_Library?page=1|title=Kogence browser based scientific HPC platform.}}</ref>
