The relevance of the structure and dynamics of surfaces is discussed by means of some typical examples: effect of relaxation on electronic surface properties, heterogeneous catalysis, kinetic oscillations, etc. In the discussion of experimental methods we have restricted ourselves to brief remarks on the most interesting scattering methods. Some of the theoretical problems are discussed which arise in connection with the determination of the structure and dynamics of surfaces. The molecular dynamics method is introduced, and results of molecular dynamics calculations for krypton surfaces are given in more detail.
