“There is the longstanding problem, perhaps the greatest remaining from 20 th century physics, of reconciling quantum mechanics with gravity,” said UC Santa Barbara theoretical physicist Steven Giddings. However, for all the advances we’ve made in witnessing the more readily observable, macro effects of gravity, there remains a gap - a chasm, really - in our ability to understand gravity in the context of another profound discovery: quantum mechanics, the physics of matter and energy at their smallest scales. In the intervening decades, numerous observations have borne Einstein out, with phenomena such as gravitational lensing and redshift, shifts in planetary orbit and, more recently, gravitational waves and observations of black holes. BOINC, "Berkeley Open Infrastructure for Network Computing", stalledĮmbedded devices, play with embedded linux system on them.About a century ago, Albert Einstein amazed the world with his groundbreaking theory of relativity, and ever since he shared this profound understanding of gravity and spacetime, physicists everywhere have worked hard to prove, refine and extend it.Scheme: mainly from Harold Abelson, Gerald Jay Sussman's Structure and Interpretation of Programming Languages.Fortran: helped a PhD Candidate to calculate in fortran.(OLPC porting p圜AS is still being prepared.)
