A computer simulation method is presented, which yields the ground state as well as the low-energy excitations for disordered systems of many interacting particles. The efficiency of the method is demonstrated by the application to the Coulomb glass, i.e. many localized electrons with long-range interaction. The obtained knowledge about the specific configurations of a large number of excited states is only the starting point for further investigations. First results are presented which shed a new light on old controversies about the behaviour of correlated electrons within the Coulomb gap regime.
