The availability of an exact description of the full non-Markovian influence of a heat bath on a test system without terms explicitly non-local in time allows an efficient evaluation of system dynamics exhibiting effects of decoherence and dissipation[1]. Trajectory based methods have proven to be suitable to numerically evaluate the stochastic integrals which result from the unraveling of the path integrals of the influence functional formalism[2]. We consider oscillator test systems and scattering barriers. The coupling to the environment is bilinear in the pointer variable of the system and those of an ensemble of harmonic oscillators with a fixed temperature. We present effects of the influence of the environment on the test system quantum dynamics and discuss issues arising during such calculations.
