Mathematica is used in thousands of academic institutions, research labs, and companies around the world. It is deployed both as an interactive calculation tool and a programming language across fields as diverse as engineering, science, finance, and education. For details, see the Mathematica website.

Tom Wickham-Jones has worked for Wolfram Research on the implementation of Mathematica since 1990. He is currently the Director of Kernel Technology. He has worked on many details of the Mathematica programming language as well as other areas such as graphics. In addition he is the architect of webMathematica and the Wolfram Workbench. In 1992 he published the book Mathematica Graphics: Techniques and Applications. His most recent work has focused on the Mathematica compiler and parallel computation.

Jon McLoone is the Director of Business Development for Wolfram Research, and has worked with Mathematica since 1992, on software development, system design, technical writing, and strategy. His work has included document processing and conversion technology, and he has worked with several publishers on electronic courseware and interactive content projects. Jon obtained a degree in mathematics from Durham University.
