Abstract: This is a survey of four recent papers which deal with the relationship of simple C*-algebras to the problem of computing the spectra of self-adjoint operators in the general case, especially when the spectrum is not discrete. It is an expanded version of a talk presented at the 50 year C*-algebra celebration, held at the annual meeting of the AMS in San Antonio during January, 1993.
