Abstract: The Penna bit-string model for biological ageing appeared in 1995, and is now by far the most widely used Monte Carlo simulation technique to predict many of the features found in real populations, related to ageing. The purpose of this paper is to give an overview of the most important results that have been obtained using this technique.
