Interacting many-body systems are the main subjects of research in

theoretical condensed matter physics, and they are the source of both the
interest and the difficulty in this field. In order to understand the

macroscopic properties of matter in terms of macroscopic knowledge,

many analytic and approximate methods have been introduced.

The contributions to this proceedings volume focus on the most recent
developments of computational approaches in condensed matter physics. Monte Carlo methods and molecular dynamics simulations applied to strongly

correlated classical and quantum systems such as electron systems, quantum spin systems, spin glassss, coupled map systems, polymers and other

random and comlex systems are reviewed. Comprising easy to follow

introductions to each field covered and also more specialized contributions,this proceedings volume explains why computational approaches are necessary and how different fields are related to each other.
