  Sulfide-based glasses and glass-ceramics showing high ionic conductivities
and excellent mechanical properties are considered as promising solid-state
electrolytes. Nowadays, the computational material techniques with the
advantage of low research cost are being widely utilized for understanding,
effectively screening and discovering of battery materials. In consideration of
the rising importance and contributions of computational studying on the glassy
SSE materials, here, this work summarizes the common computational methods
utilized for studying the amorphous inorganic materials, review the recent
progress in computational investigations of the lithium and sodium sulfide-type
glasses for solid-state batteries, and outlines our understandings of the
challenges and future perspective on them. This review would facilitate and
accelerate the future computational screening and discovering more glassy-state
SSE materials for the solid-state batteries.
