Abstract
This is a short overview of the lattice QCD simulations of finite density systems. We first describe a brief introduction of the lattice QCD at finite density, including the minimum necessary formulation, where we show why an annoying complex fermion determinant appears, and why in some cases it does not appear. Then we review several approaches of present and past days. We conclude possible directions of lattice QCD simulations at finite density in near future.
