Thanks for your recommendation and reply, mohsen and Giuseppe. So, Giuseppe, i understand what 's your meaning is<br />
that the GWW and TDDFPT in QE distribution (4.3) can be used for different purposes, but they are both accurate in their fields. In addition, they both have the advantage of efficient computation speed becuase they used different method from the tranditional methods. Is it?<br />
<br />
Thanks again.<br />

And, practically speaking, you can obtain corrected (i.e., quasiparticle)<br />
eigenvalues by using GWW, and absorption spectra by using turbo_lanczos, that<br />
is, the GW and TDDFPT current implementations that you find embedded into the<br />
QE (4.3) distribution. Within the above limitations, the computational cost<br />
of both methods can be considered rather low.<br />
