Computer simulations of a wavefront distorted by atmospheric turbulence are considered focusing on large scale and dynamic simulations. Attention is also given to wavefront sensor and wavefront corrector simulations. Computer modeling of adaptive optical systems takes into account an optical wave field in the plane of receiving aperture, a wavefront distortion sensor, a wavefront distortion corrector, and quantum fluctuation of the optical wave intensity.
