Is Computer Science STEM – The Link Between the Two

STEM Education Guide

It’s no secret that the exposure of students to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics (STEM) can positively impact the future of the world and their futures. Mathematics and science are particularly crucial in STEM learning because engineering and technology are dependent on them. Is Computer Science Stem?

Can AI Solve Science?

Stephen Wolfram

Three centuries ago science was transformed by the idea of representing the world using mathematics. And that’s for example why things like mathematical formulas have been able to be as successful in science as they have. In 2000 I was interested in what the simplest possible axiom system for logic (Boolean algebra) might be.

Even beyond Physics: Introducing Multicomputation as a Fourth General Paradigm for Theoretical Science

Stephen Wolfram

Many would say that modern exact science was launched in the 1600s with the introduction of what we can call the “ mathematical paradigm ”: the idea that things in the world can be described by mathematical equations—and that their behavior can be determined by finding solutions to these equations.

The Concept of the Ruliad

Stephen Wolfram

And—it should be said at the outset—we’re still only at the very beginning of nailing down those technical details and setting up the difficult mathematics and formalism they involve.) Mathematically this can be thought of as being like decomposing the ruliad structure in terms of fibrations and foliations.). Experiencing the Ruliad.

What can stars reveal about galaxies and what can cultures reveal about stars?

Futurum

I liked all kinds of science when I was at school – biology, chemistry, physics. I work with the Project for Inmate Education programme at UCSC, where I teach algebra and astronomy in Santa Cruz jail facilities. I was also interested in sports and enjoyed both watching and playing lots of different sports.

Remembering the Improbable Life of Ed Fredkin (1934–2023) and His World of Ideas and Stories

Stephen Wolfram

It explains that III has four divisions: Mathematical and Programming Services, Behavioral Science, Operations, and “New York”. Then McCarthy started to explain ways a computer could do algebra. It was all algebra. So what happened is Marvin [Minsky] and I basically fleshed out the idea of a mathematical thing.
