The Future of Computing

From filling rooms in the '60's to filling your pocket in the '00's, computers are growing smaller and smaller. Since we've managed to create circuits at the atomic level, the next logical step is quantum computing -- manipulating subatomic particles to perform computations! Quantum computers manipulate individual ions trapped in an electric field to perform calculations that could take a standard computer years to perform. In fact, the U.S. Department of Defense has a significant interest in this technology (which is why we're never under-funded).

The Free Mathematica ™

SAGE is a mathematical software package developed at the University of Washington. It's a free, open-source project intended to provide teachers, students, and the general public with all the features of advanced mathematics software like Mathematica™ -- without the cost.
