A critical review of numerical simulations of plasma double layers is presented. Physical aspects of the double-layer problem are discussed, together with numerical methods appropriate to treat them. Particular emphasis is given to examining boundary conditions and their effect on the physical dynamics. Some physical processes currently thought to be important for double layers are discussed, and the simulation results are described with particular emphasis on their relation to these concepts. The review concludes with an interpretive discussion of the results, together with comments on their applicability to laboratory situations and to double layers in space. Some suggestions for future directions in double layer simulation are offered.
