Abstract

This paper gives a very brief summary of the aims and general methods of lattice gauge theory Monte Carlo calculations. Then it summarizes the current status of lattice gauge theory results in various areas, such as hadron and meson specroscopy, thermodynamics, and Higgs models, concentrating on recent work which includes the effects dynamical fermions. It discusses whether current computations are being carried out on lattices fine enough to well approximate continuum OCD, yet large enough to be physically interesting. Finally, it discusses the algorithms which have been developed for fermionic simulations, and their implementation on various computer architectures.
