Computer Simulation Studies in Condensed-Matter Physics XVI: Proceedings of the Fifteenth Workshop, Athens, GA, USA, February 24–28, 2003 (Springer Proceedings in Physics) 1st Edition by David P. Landau , Steven P. Lewis , Heinz-Bernd Schüttler

This status report features the most recent developments in the field, spanning a wide range of topical areas in the computer simulation of condensed matter/materials physics. Highlights of this volume include various aspects of non-equilibrium statistical mechanics, studies of properties of real materials using both classical model simulations and electronic structure calculations, and the use of computer simulation in teaching.
