Wolfram (musician)
Wolfram Eckert (born in 1983 in St. Veit an der Glan, Austria), known professionally as Wolfram, is an Austrian electronic dance music disc jockey and record producer. His style includes Italo disco and Eurodance and he is known as a DJ in the fashion industry. He also works under the alias Diskokaine. Career Wolfram grew up in Carinthia near the Austrian-Italian border. His father played a role in his musical development, introducing him to classic electronic music artists like Kraftwerk and Jean-Michel Jarre. After completing his education in Austria, Wolfram moved to Vienna to study sound engineering at The SAE Institute'','' in addition to studying digital media at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna. Wolfram's career took off in New York, where his DJ sets gained attention for their blend of Italo disco and Chicago house sounds. This period saw him collaborate with artists like Princess Superstar and Legowelt, as well as executively producing the debut album for Sally S ...

Wolfram (element)
Tungsten (also called wolfram) is a chemical element; it has symbol W and atomic number 74. It is a metal found naturally on Earth almost exclusively in compounds with other elements. It was identified as a distinct element in 1781 and first isolated as a metal in 1783. Its important ores include scheelite and wolframite, the latter lending the element its alternative name. The free element is remarkable for its robustness, especially the fact that it has the highest melting point of all known elements, melting at . It also has the highest boiling point, at . Its density is 19.254 g/cm3, comparable with that of uranium and gold, and much higher (about 1.7 times) than that of lead. Polycrystalline tungsten is an intrinsically brittle and hard material (under standard conditions, when uncombined), making it difficult to work into metal. However, pure single-crystalline tungsten is more ductile and can be cut with a hard-steel hacksaw. Tungsten occurs in many alloys, whic ...

Wolfram Research
Wolfram Research, Inc. ( ) is an American Multinational corporation, multinational company that creates computational technology. Wolfram's flagship product is the technical computing program Wolfram Mathematica, first released on June 23, 1988. Other products include WolframAlpha, Wolfram SystemModeler, Wolfram System Modeler, Wolfram Workbench, gridMathematica, Wolfram Finance Platform, webMathematica, the Wolfram Cloud, and the Wolfram Programming Lab. Wolfram Research founder Stephen Wolfram is the CEO. The company is headquartered in Champaign, Illinois, United States. History The company launched Wolfram Alpha, an answer engine on May 16, 2009. It brings a new approach to knowledge generation and acquisition that involves large amounts of digital curation, curated computable data in addition to semantic indexing of text. Wolfram Research acquired MathCore Engineering AB on March 30, 2011. On July 21, 2011, Wolfram Research launched the Computable Document Format (CDF). CD ...

Wolfram Language
The Wolfram Language ( ) is a proprietary, very high-level multi-paradigm programming language developed by Wolfram Research. It emphasizes symbolic computation, functional programming, and rule-based programming and can employ arbitrary structures and data. It is the programming language of the mathematical symbolic computation program Mathematica. History The Wolfram Language was part of the initial version of Mathematica in 1988. Symbolic aspects of the engine make it a computer algebra system. The language can perform integration, differentiation, matrix manipulations, and solve differential equations using a set of rules. Also, the initial version introduced the notebook model and the ability to embed sound and images, according to Theodore Gray's patent. Wolfram also added features for more complex tasks, such as 3D modeling. A name was finally adopted for the language in 2013, as Wolfram Research decided to make a version of the language engine free for Raspberry ...

Wolfram Code
Wolfram code is a widely used numbering system for one-dimensional cellular automaton rules, introduced by Stephen Wolfram in a 1983 paper and popularized in his book ''A New Kind of Science''. The code is based on the observation that a table specifying the new state of each cell in the automaton, as a function of the states in its neighborhood, may be interpreted as a ''k''-digit number in the ''S''-ary positional number system, where ''S'' is the number of states that each cell in the automaton may have, ''k'' = S2''n'' + 1 is the number of neighborhood configurations, and ''n'' is the radius of the neighborhood. Thus, the Wolfram code for a particular rule is a number in the range from 0 to ''S''''S'' − 1, converted from ''S''-ary to decimal notation. It may be calculated as follows: # List all the ''S''2''n'' + 1 possible state configurations of the neighbourhood of a given cell. # Interpreting each configuration as a number as des ...

Wolfram Syndrome
Wolfram syndrome, also called DIDMOAD (diabetes insipidus, diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and deafness), is a rare autosomal-recessive genetic disorder that causes childhood-onset diabetes mellitus, optic atrophy, and deafness as well as various other possible disorders including neurodegeneration. Symptoms can start to appear as early as childhood to adult years (2–65 years old). There is a 25% recurrence risk in children. It was first described in four siblings in 1938 by Dr. Don J. Wolfram, M.D. In 1995, diagnostic criteria were created based on the profiles of 45 patients. The disease affects the central nervous system (especially the brainstem). There are two subtypes – Wolfram Syndrome Type 1 (WFS1) and Wolfram Syndrome Type 2 (WFS2), that are distinguished by their causative gene. Less than 5,000 people in the US have this disease, with WFS1 being more common than WFS2. Causes Wolfram syndrome was initially thought to be caused by mitochondrial dysfunction due to ...

Wolfram, Queensland
Wolfram is a former mining town within the Suburbs and localities (Australia), locality of Dimbulah, Queensland, Dimbulah in the Shire of Mareeba in Queensland, Australia, now a ghost town. Geography Wolfram is about west of Cairns, Queensland, Cairns and south of Thornborough, Queensland, Thornborough. It was also known as Wolfram Camp. It is at an altitude of approximately 538 metres. History The mineral tungsten, wolfram (from which the town derives its name) was discovered in the area in 1891 and attracted miners from neighbouring mining regions such as Thornborough, Queensland, Thornborough and the Palmer River (Queensland), Palmer River, forming a settlement known initially as Wolfram Camp. Wolfram today Today there are few visible remains of the settlement. There are some concrete foundations of long-gone buildings, headstones in the cemetery, and a row of mango trees that mark where the school used to be.
