In 1993 Gregory and Laflamme found (trhough linearized analysis and entropy considerations) that a black string (a higher dimensional analogue of a black hole) could bifurcate. This prompted the conjecture that these systems were examples of violations of cosmic censorship. Additionally, the bifurcation possibility was embraced in different investigations in string theory like discussions of density of states from the AdS/CFT correspondece, unstable D-brane configurations, etc. Two recent works have questioned this result (although the outcome predicted by these are completely different). We will describe an effort towards understanding the system via numerical simulations, which is capable of stuying the problem without the restrictions of the previous studies. Preliminary results will be presented.
