When a contractor for the U.S. Department of Defense called on Bruce Colletti to develop a geo-positioning application for precision targeting, Colletti called on Mathematica. Mathematica is the only software available that he could use to combine the vast technical and programmatic functions from his research with an interactive report-building feature to illustrate his application.

Colletti says, "If it hadn't been for Mathematica, I might still be working on that project, but I was able to dispatch it in four to five months.... Every analyst needs a well-equipped toolbox, and Mathematica belongs in there."
