I give a brief overview of recent results from lattice QCD calculations which
are relevant for the phenomenology of the Standard Model. I discuss, in
particular, the lattice determination of light quark masses and the calculation
of those hadronic quantities, such as semileptonic form factors, decay
constants and B-parameters, which are of particular interest for the analysis
of the CKM mixing matrix and the origin of CP violation.Comment: 5 pages, 4 figures, uses espcrc2.sty (included). Based on invited
talk given at the QCD 98 Euroconference, Montpellier, France, 2-8 July 199
