Spin dynamics simulations of classical ferro- and antiferromagnetic model systems: comparison with theory and experiment

In this article we review the progress which has been made in spin dynamics simulations of simple models of magnetic systems. We will describe modern spin dynamics methods and show results which have been obtained for a number of simple model systems. Where appropriate we will make comparison with experimental results and theoretical predictions.
