Abstract:
Prodigiously talented with a remarkable flair for anticipating correct results and initiating fruitful areas of research, Stanislaw Ulam (‘Stan’ to his friends) was an unusual mathematician. The considerable breadth of his preoccupations, even in the halcyon days of his youth in Poland, distinguished him from his peers. Sustained by a supreme self-confidence, Ulam preferred pioneering new fields of mathematics to elaborating the ideas of others. Indeed, impatient with detail he tended to leave technicalities to those with whom he collaborated. Uprooted from his native Poland in his twenties, U

Projekt Manhattan to kryptonim najbardziej rozpoznawalnego programu zbrojeniowego we współczesnej historii. Chociaż nie był pierwszym programem budowy broni jądrowej, z całą pewnością był największym i najbardziej znanym. Brało w nim udział ponad sto tysięcy osób: począwszy od naukowców-teoretyków i inżynierów, jak również techników i laborantów, pracowników administracji i personelu pomocniczego, a skończywszy na żołnierzach. Najbardziej znani są naukowcy – to prawdziwa śmietanka ówczesnego świata nauki, byli lub przy

The forgotten, insufficiently explored pages of West-Belarusian poetry in the 20s – 30s of the XX century and Yanka Bylina, Stanislau Stankevich, Ulad-Initsky’s ideological and esthetic searches are analyzed in the article. The creative work of poets is seen in the context of acute socio-economic, spiritual and national problems and contradictions of reality, in line with the traditions of the leading, lyrical and narrative, style trends of national literature.The author notes the plot and novelistic nature of Y.

The main purpose of this study is to present the history of the Ulma family from Markowa against the background of the biblical vision of redeemed in Rev 7:9-17. On 24 March 1944, Wiktoria and Józef Ulma and their seven children were murdered by German soldiers for giving shelter to eight Jews. The beatification process of the family from the Subcarpathia region began several years ago and has an unique character. It lies in that the beatification process concerns not only the parents, but all their children: Stanisława, Barbara, Władysław, Franciszek, Antoni and Maria aged from 8 to 1.5 years

Close attention to successive drafts illuminates the process by which John and Klara von Neumann worked with Adele Goldstine to transform the former’s outline plan of computation into a fully developed flow diagram documenting the flow of control and manipulation of data for a program written in the new style.

The chapter proceeds by describing regular graphs, irregular graphs, irregular multigraphs and weighted graphs, subgraphs, and isomorphic graphs. It also anal

Abstract:
Chapter 4 tells the story of numerical weather forecasting from its inception to today’s supercomputing algorithms. In 1922, Lewis Fry Richardson proposed that, since the atmosphere is subject to the laws of physics, future weather can be predicted by means of algorithmic calculations. His attempt at forecasting a single day’s weather by means of manual calculations took several months. In the late 1940s, John von Neumann resurrected Richardson’s idea and launched a project to conduct the first weather forecast by computer.

Abstract Stanislaw Marcius Ulam (1909-1984), a brilliant Polish-born mathematician, was a staff member at Los Alamos from 1943 until 1967. In the beginning of that period, he had been working primarily, without major success, on devising schemes for a workable hydrogen bomb. Then, in January 1951, his wife remembered: “Engraved on my memory is the day when I found him at noon staring intensely out of a window in our Santa Fe living room with a very strange expression on his face. Peering unseeing into the garden, he said, ‘I found a way to make it work.’ ‘What work?’ I asked. ‘The Super,’ he r

Cellular Automata (CA) models are among the most popular models for simulating land use change/growth in urban areas around the world and have experienced a significant development over the last twenty years. These models have their origins on the efforts of devising mathematical rules for biological systems and for evolution developed by mathematicians von Neumann and Stanislaw Ulam in the 1940s. Two main
