Issue 4, 2011
On July 21, we launched the Computable Document Format (CDF)—a computation-powered knowledge container that leverages Mathematica 8 technology to improve sharing of information.
CDF is a new standard that's as everyday as a document, but as interactive as an app. It empowers readers to drive content and generate results live for a deeper understanding. And authoring interactivity is easy enough for teachers, journalists, analysts, managers, or researchers to add to reports, presentations, blogs, infographics, articles, and textbooks.
Discover how you can use CDF to communicate your ideas more effectively!
Or learn more about CDF at the free Wolfram Mathematica Virtual Conference 2011.

Enter a new world where every document is instantly interactive and every concept comes with an application—all directly publishable using the Wolfram CDF Player or webMathematica. Mathematica documents are an ideal superset container for any type of information, including dynamic content, typeset inputs and outputs, 2D and 3D graphics, calculations, text, and programs. Because the documents are powered by a full computational engine, the expressions, programs, and other elements are live and instantly computable. More »
