Computation in Lattice QCD
Paul Mackenzie
Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics uses large scale numerical simulation to
solve problems that were unsolvable with earlier perturbative methods. In
the last few years, problems crucial to the high energy physics
experimental program have been solved, but new quantities and even higher
accuracies are urgently needed.
The field is now in a ferment of
development of new methods and new computing hardware. I will review
recent developments in these areas, and the dynamic tension between them.
