Abstract: | We present a new, maximum-likelihood based method to combine data from a multiple number of Monte Carlo simulations performed
within any type of ensemble. The method offers an efficient iterative scheme to obtain the density of states of a wide range
of energies as well as of other macroscopic variables. It should in particular be useful for the study of systems with a rough
energy landscape.
