In the framework of the Virtual Time Capsule Project, TC103 encouraged a reflection about
1. The past:
what are the key developments in numerical methods?
2. The present:
what is the current use of numerical methods?
3. The future:
what will be the future? How can we improve it?
The material prepared by TC103 is accessible here. You will find a presentation on the development of numerical methods along time, summarized in the academic roadmap, and a survey on present and future needs of numerical methods.
