Abstract
A computational approach is presented which allows the simulation of time-d ependent magnetisation processes over long time scales. The method is based on Monte Carlo methods and allows continuous magnetization changes, thereb y allowing cooperative reversal mechanisms, whilst retaining a quantified t ime step. The method is applied to studies of the decay of information in w ritten bits. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
