Cosmological Simulations

In the past few years cosmological simulations had rapidly advanced to a point where they became useful and powerful tool to constraint cosmological models. They can be used to study physics on variety of scales, from galaxy collisions to clusters and large-scale structure formation.
In this talk I would like to present basic steps to run your own cosmological simulation and what physics can be constrained from the results.
