The phenomenon of hopping, in which a particle executes a series of jumps between discrete states, has a fundamental role in a wide range of solid state transport phenomena. In these proceedings acknowledged experts in the field describe important recent progress in developing the phenomenology of hopping processes and applying it to different systems, including crystalline and amorphous semiconductors, glasses, polymers, mesoscopic conductors and high temperature superconductors.
