N2 - This article discusses the use of path integral techniques for the study of dynamical processes in many-body quantum systems. Recently developed approaches are described, which enable the evaluation of the real-time path integral with Monte Carlo methodology. Various methods for accelerating the convergence of the discretized path integral are also discussed. Several numerical examples are presented, which illustrate the basic ideas described in the paper.
