  2. Young's interference experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Young's_interference...

    From a book published in 1807 relating lectures given by Young in 1802 to London's Royal Institution. While studying medicine at Göttingen in the 1790s, Young wrote a thesis on the physical and mathematical properties of sound [4] and in 1800, he presented a paper to the Royal Society (written in 1799) where he argued that light was also a wave motion.

  3. Double-slit experiment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double-slit_experiment

    A laboratory double-slit assembly; distance between top posts is approximately 2.5 cm (one inch). Near-field intensity distribution patterns for plasmonic slits with equal widths (A) and non-equal widths (B). In 1967, Pfleegor and Mandel demonstrated two-source interference using two separate lasers as light sources. [60] [61]

    On the contrary, some constructions in continuous programs (so far only Cinderella and GeoGebra), depend on the number of hidden parameters and in such a way that moving a given point produces a continuous motion of the construction, as a result, if the point is moved back to the original position the result of construction might be different.

  6. GeoGebra - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GeoGebra

    The GeoGebra Materials platform [11] is a cloud service that allows users to upload and share GeoGebra applets with others. GeoGebra Materials was originally launched as GeoGebraTube in June 2011, and was renamed in 2016. As of April 2016 the service hosts more than 1 million resources, 400,000+ of which are public.

  7. Verification and validation of computer simulation models

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verification_and...

    [1] [2] "Simulation models are increasingly being used to solve problems and to aid in decision-making. The developers and users of these models, the decision makers using information obtained from the results of these models, and the individuals affected by decisions based on such models are all rightly concerned with whether a model and its ...

  8. Synthetic Environment for Analysis and Simulations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_Environment_for...

    The Sentient World Simulation project (SWS) is to be based on SEAS. The ultimate goal envisioned by Alok R. Chaturvedi on March 10, 2006 was for SWS to be a "continuously running, continually updated mirror model of the real world that can be used to predict and evaluate future events and courses of action.

  9. Discrete-event simulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discrete-event_simulation

    The simulation must keep track of the current simulation time, in whatever measurement units are suitable for the system being modeled. In discrete-event simulations, as opposed to continuous simulations, time 'hops' because events are instantaneous – the clock skips to the next event start time as the simulation proceeds.
