Dear all
I  have calculated the diffusion coefficient using command g_msd and I want
to calculate diffusion coefficient using command g_velacc. I am confused
with some terms.

time interval between data collection points is much shorter than the time
scale of the autocorrelation." What actually does that mean?
2>I am also confused with the flag -acflen ( I have found that it describes
the number of frames to be taken into consideration.Does that mean I have to
take the points ,to integrate,  in such a way that it matches with the time
i have used in g_msd for fitting of Einsteins equation)
3> what does the flag -nonormalize indicates. Do I need to use it
necessarily?
4>Is the  command "g_analyze -f *.xvg -integrate" sufficient for
integration?

Lots of good questions.
Have you actually tried?

You need to store the Velcoties quite often, maybe every 20 fs (depending on the system).
