AUTONOMY AND AUTOMATION: COMPUTATIONAL MODELING, REDUCTION, AND EXPLANATION IN QUANTUM CHEMISTRY.

This paper discusses how computational modeling combines the autonomy of models with the automation of computational procedures. In particular, the case of ab-initio methods in quantum chemistry will be investigated to draw two lessons from the analysis of computational modeling. The first belongs t...
