Introduction |
 |
Wolfram Research and Sun Microsystems are presenting this free technical
seminar on webMathematica, a new Wolfram Research product and Sun
server technology.
webMathematica uses server-based Sun technologies such as Java
Servlet and JSP, allowing
immediate access to all Mathematica capabilities from any web
browser or web-enabled device.
In this seminar, Tom Wickham-Jones, Director of Strategic Kernel Technology
at Wolfram Research and key developer of webMathematica,
will provide a tutorial and a thorough introduction to this new
technology. Wickham-Jones and representatives from Sun Microsystems
will also discuss applicable Sun products to run webMathematica.
The focus of the seminar will be on technical foundations. It will provide
instruction on how to administer a webMathematica site, develop web
content, and work with other web technologies. The seminar will also indicate future
directions of webMathematica technology.
