In this method several replicas of the system are simulated at different [[temperature]]s. Every once in a while copies of the system are exchanged.
==Thermostats==
It has recently been pointed pointed out that one should be very careful which [[thermostats | thermostat]] one employs, the wrong choice leading to [[Ergodic hypothesis | non-ergodic]] behaviour <ref>[http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.2989802 Ben Cooke and Scott C.
