A study in complexity

Stephen Wolfram, a Caltech physicist and founder-CEO of Mathematica, believes the complexity of the universe belies an underlying simplicity in which a few basic rules give rise to complicated and unpredictable behavior--also known as complexity theory. Wolfram's studies are at the cutting edge...

Zusammenfassung:Stephen Wolfram, a Caltech physicist and founder-CEO of Mathematica, believes the complexity of the universe belies an underlying simplicity in which a few basic rules give rise to complicated and unpredictable behavior--also known as complexity theory. Wolfram's studies are at the cutting edge of the integration of physics and computer science.
