Dynamic Monte Carlo Simulation

Dynamic Monte Carlo (DMC) simulation is a computational method that tracks the stochastic time evolution of a system by drawing random event sequences weighted by transition rates. Unlike static Monte Carlo sampling of equilibrium distributions, DMC explicitly advances a clock, making it suitable for kinetic, reaction, and time-dependent phenomena where the sequence and timing of events matter.
