Abstract

We review the status of lattice computer calculations in Quantum Chromo-dynamics (QCD) and mention a new field of computational high-energy physics—that of Strings or random surfaces. After outlining Monte Carlo Field Theory we explain in detail both QCD and Strings—describing how these theories are discretized on a lattice, what one can calculate, and how much computer time is required. We include a summary of the concurrent QCD machines which have been, and are being, built. We speculate on the prospects for such work, including a prediction for when QCD will besolved!
