Abstract
This paper is a review of recent advances in numerical simulations of turbulence in fusion plasmas. Recent improvements of fluid and particl e simulations are described. The results are compared with challenging issues such as the GH transition and scaling laws. Finally, the predi ctive capability of turbulence simulations is addressed.
