English Version

Already nowadays, in 2016, mathematics rules "behind the scenes": technologies and strategies with a lot of "math inside" influence everyday life and allow progress. Whereas it is visible in architecture and cinema, it often goes unnoticed in the financial and telecommunications industries, where it plays an equally significant role as in the life sciences and in the fields of transport, logistics and traffic. What can mathematics achieve today that would have seemed like science fiction 25=32 years ago? What can we expect and hope for 25 years = 32 years from now - and what do we envision for the year 211 = 2048?
