Nuclear reaction models, and their computational implementation, have become indispensible in modern nuclear data evaluation. To perform adequate interand extrapolation on the energy and angular grids per reaction channel, technological software (e.g. codes to analyze nuclear reactors) relies on a complete representation of a nuclear reaction in a data file, and not only on the data that happen to be available through measurements. For nuclear model evaluation, future research is seen to proceed in two directions simultaneously: (a) broad scale nuclear model calculations (dripline-to-dripline) and the associated comparison with the experimental database and global parameter determination, (b) precise determination of nuclear data for very important nuclides and reaction channels. For (a), microscopic physics, or trends derived from it, is necessary to obtain a credible prediction for unmeasured reactions, while for (b) the experimental data that are of high quality need to be identified from the existing database, or otherwise, need to be re-measured. For both cases, uncertainties play an important role, and the current abilities to generate covariance data will be demonstrated. Next, an outlook is presented for nuclear models and reaction channels that should become routine in the coming 10 years, such as microscopic optical models, quantum-mechanical multi-step theories, microscopic level densities, fission fragments and their neutron spectra.
