Abstract: (arXiv)
Some interesting heavy-flavor questions are mentioned that may yield to the methods of lattice QCD. Special emphasis is placed on topics which arise in the discussion of CP violation in BB decays. Other subjects include quarkonium and light-quark systems and some potential applications outside QCD.
