Basic idea of the wavelet method
Recent extensions : A. Chevchenko et al, PRL93 (2004) 122501.
Discussion on approximate quantum stochastic theories based on statistical assumptions
Results on small amplitude motions looks fine
The semiclassical version (BOB) gives a good reproduction of Heavy-Ion collisions

Critical aspects
Which interaction for the collision term
Stochastic methods for large amplitude motion are still an open problem(No guide to the random walk)
Theoretical justification of the introduction of noise
Instantaneous reorganization of internal degrees of freedom?
Functional integral and stochastic quantum mechanics
Given a Hamiltonianand an initial State
