Abstract :
A personal view is presented of electromagnetic field computing from 1962 to 1988. The major achievements are listed with a summary of the current state of the art. A software computing environment is described that embodies the latest developments, with particular emphasis on mesh adaptive solutions controlled by error predictions. It is conjectured that new hardware developments on parallel and vector processing will make practical the computation of moving and coupled systems
