We introduce a time discretization for non linear hyperbolic systems of conservation laws unifying many recent numerical schemes, each of them being obtained by a different full discretization. Among them we recognize the Osher scheme, the Roe scheme and its generalization by Le Veque for large Courant numbers. By using a non classical technique of full discretization suggested to us by the works of Chorin we also obtain a particle scheme. The time discretization described here is closely related to the Boltzmann type schemes considered by A. Harten, P. Lax and B. Van Leer [SIAM Rev. 25, 35-61 (1983; Zbl 0565.65051)].
