Summary Materials modelling involves research over a broad range of hierarchies from the electronic at the Ångström length scale, through the atomistic and microstructural, to the continuum at the meter length scale. In this paper the theory of giant magnetoresistance and the simulation of the growth of diamond-like carbon are given as illustrative examples of modelling at the electronic and atomistic length scales, respectively. The question is then addressed as to whether the gap between the electronic and atomistic hierarchies can be bridged by the novel many-atom bond-order potentials that may be derived as an exact description of the covalent bond within the tight-binding approximation to the electronic structure.
