Invited
I will provide a review of our understanding of the chemical
evolution of galaxies across the cosmic epocs based on recent
multi-band observations at high redshift and also by
discussing these results in the framework of theoretical models
and cosmological simulations.
I will illustrate how the comparison between observations and models
provides important constraints on the mechanisms responsible for
galaxy formation and evolution.
I will discuss the open issues and the progress in this field expected
from forthcoming and planned observing facilities, such
as JWST, the ELTs, the next generation multi-object spectrographs,
ALMA, SKA and SPICA.
