Then we describe some results about the behaviour of N-body systems which have been acquired by this technique. Finally we concentrate on the problems associated with the scaling of N-body data with N, with particular regard to the dissolution of systems in a tidal field when mass is lost by stellar evolution.10 pages uuencoded compressed postscript; to appear in P.
