Abstract
The enormous progress which has been made in computer technology and science is of increasing impact on optics. In particular optical design seems to experience a drastic development with significant consequences. Besides the introduction of powerful software for the design of imaging systems an additional tendency may be observed. Physical optics is entering the design of optical systems and requires the development of new algorithms
