Lattice computation of the strange quark mass in QCD
  We present a determination of the strange quark mass using lattice QCD. Particular focus is put on the definition and renormalization of the mass. The latter is done non-perturbatively, using a recursive finite-size scaling technique. The hadronic regime of QCD, where the kaon mass is used as input of the calculation, is connected with the perturbative regime, where the strange quark mass can be translated into the MSbar scheme. A summary plot of the present lattice computations using dynamical (sea) quarks is included.
