As the role of computer simulations began to increase in importance, we sensed a need for a "e;meeting place"e; for both experienced simulators and neophytes to discuss new techniques and results in an evironment which promotes extended discussion.
This introduction to classical theoretical physics emerged from a course for students in the third and fourth semester, which the authors have given several times at the University of Freiburg (Germany).
Applying fractal geometry to science is bringing about a breakthrough in our understanding of complex systems in nature that show self-similar or self-affine features.
