Abstract
Monte Carlo simulations of the short-time critical dynamics are reviewed. The short-time universal scaling behavior of the dynamic Ising model and Potts model are discussed in detail, while extension and application to more complex systems as the XY model, the fully frustrated XY model and other dynamic systems are also presented. The investigation of the universal behavior of the short-time dynamics not only enlarges the fundamental knowledge on critical phenomena but also, more interestingly, provides possible new ways to determine not only the new critical exponents θ and θ1, but also the traditional dynamic critical exponent z as well as all static critical exponents.Keywords
