Abstract
This work analyzes stability and accuracy of standard numerical method s applied to molecular dynamics simulations which generate configurati ons in the microcanonical and in the canonical ensembles. Numerical te sting has been made on crystalline lattices of metallic and semiconduc ting type (Ag, Fe, and Si, respectively).
