We provide a state of the art of Reduced Order Methods (ROM) for parametric Partial Differential Equations (PDEs), and we focus on some perspectives in their current trends and developments, with a special interest in parametric problems arising in offline-online Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) with application in industry, medicine and environment. Efficient parametrisations (random inputs, geometry, physics) are very important to be able to properly address an offline-online decoupling of the computational procedures and to allow competitive computational performances. Current ROM developments in CFD include: a better use of stable high fidelity methods, considering also spectral element method, discontinuous Galerkin and finite volume discretisations, to enhance the quality of the reduced model too, and allowing to incorporate turbulent patterns, as well as increasing the Reynolds number and considering compressibility effects; more efficient sampling techniques to reduce the number of the basis functions, retained as snapshots, as well as the dimension of online systems; potential enhancements provided by automatic learning especially in turbulence modelling and in dealing with fast transient dynamics, as well as the guarantee of the stability of the approximation with proper space enrichments or ad hoc segregated solvers.
