Wolfram Research is a private company that makes computation software. The founder and CEO of Wolfram Research is Stephen Wolfram, an English scientist and author, who maintains close involvement with the development of ''Mathematica''. The primary software product of Wolfram Research is the technical computing program ''Mathematica''. Other products include Wolfram SystemModeler, Wolfram ''Workbench'', Mathematica Link for Excel, grid''Mathematica'', Wolfram Finance Platform and web''Mathematica''. The company launched Wolfram Alpha, an answer engine on 16 May 2009. It brings a new approach to knowledge generation and acquisition that involves large amounts of curated computable data in addition to semantic indexing of text.〔 〕 Wolfram Research served as the mathematical consultant for the CBS television series ''Numb3rs'', a show about the mathematical aspects of crime-solving. Wolfram Research acquired MathCore Engineering AB on March 30, 2011.〔(【引用サイトリンク】first=Stephen )〕 On July 21, 2011 Wolfram Research launched the Computable Document Format (CDF). CDF is an electronic document format〔(Wolfram Alpha Creator plans to delete the PDF ) The Telegraph (UK)〕 designed to allow easy authoring〔(Wolfram makes data interactive ) PC World〕 of dynamically generated interactive content. In June 2014, Wolfram Research officially introduced the Wolfram Language as a new general multi-paradigm programming language.〔(Wolfram Language reference page Retrieved on 2014-05-14. )〕 It is the primary programming language used in Mathematica.〔(Slate's article Stephen Wolfram's New Programming Language: He Can Make The World Computable, March 6, 2014. Retrieved on 2014-05-14. )〕 == Publications == Wolfram Research publishes several free websites including the MathWorld and ScienceWorld encyclopedias. The Wolfram Demonstrations Project is a collaborative site hosting interactive technical demonstrations powered by a free Mathematica Player runtime. Wolfram Research publishes the ''Mathematica'' journal and has published several books via Wolfram Media, Wolfram's publishing arm.〔(Stephen Wolfram's A New Kind of Science sets a new standard in more ways than one ) by Charlotte Abbott, ''Publishers Weekly'', 6/24/2002〕 Wolfram Research has organized three Wolfram Science conferences in Boston, MA, Washington, D.C. and Burlington, VT in the United States in the years 2003, 2006 and 2007 respectively. Two other independent NKS Midwest conferences have been organized at the Indiana University, Bloomington in 2005 and 2008. Other independent workshops related to NKS research have been also organized overseas, such as JOUAL (Just One Universal Algorithm) at the CNR in Pisa, Italy in 2009. Wolfram Research hosts the yearly Wolfram Technology Conference in Champaign, IL. During this three-day conference, developers discuss the latest Wolfram technologies for mobile devices, cloud computing, interactive deployment, and more. They are experimenting with electronic textbook creation. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Wolfram Research」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
