'''SIESTA''' ('''Spanish Initiative for Electronic Simulations with Thousands of Atoms''') is an original method and its computer program implementation, to efficiently perform [[electronic structure]] calculations and [[ab initio]] [[molecular dynamics]] simulations of [[molecules]] and solids. SIESTA uses strictly localized basis sets and the implementation of linear-scaling algorithms. Accuracy and speed can be tuned in a wide range, from quick exploratory calculations to highly accurate simulations matching the quality of other approaches, such as the plane-wave and all-electron methods.
 
SIESTA's [[backronym]] is the Spanish Initiative for Electronic Simulations with Thousands of Atoms.
