  We study the linear resistance at the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition by Monte
Carlo simulation of vortex dynamics. Finite size scaling analysis of our data
show excellent agreement with scaling properties of the Kosterlitz-Thouless
transition. We also compare our results for the linear resistance with
experiments. By adjusting the vortex chemical potential to an optimum value,
the resistance at temperatures above the transition temperature agrees well
with experiments over many decades.
