Transport and scattering phenomena in open quantum‐systems with a continuous energy spectrum are conveniently solved using the time‐dependent Schrodinger equation. In the time‐dependent picture, the evolution of an initially localized wave‐packet reveals the eigenstates and eigenvalues of the system under consideration. We discuss applications of the wave‐packet method in atomic, molecular, and mesoscopic systems and point out specific advantages of the time‐dependent approach. In connection with the familiar initial value formulation of classical mechanics, an intuitive interpretation of transport emerges. For interacting many‐particle systems, we discuss the efficient calculation of the self‐consistent classical transport in the presence of a magnetic field.
