			==Education==

			Wolff served in the '''US Naval Reserve''' from 1944 to 1946, and took his '''BS at Upsala College''' in 1948.

			He did his graduate work at the '''University of Pennsylvania''', taking his '''MS in 1953''' and his '''PhD in 1958'''. In 1992 the University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka — where he had earlier held a professorship — conferred an '''honorary DSc'''.

			He was subsequently a registered professional engineer in California and Arizona.

	Wolff's professional record is unusually substantial for a researcher working outside the mainstream, and it is worth setting out because it bears on how the work should be read.

	He took his BS at Upsala College in 1948 and his MS (1953) and PhD (1958) at the '''University of Pennsylvania''', with an honorary DSc from the University of Kelaniya, Sri Lanka, in 1992. He served in the US Naval Reserve from 1944 to 1946.

	He was a physicist at '''MIT''' from 1963 to 1969, where he was a member of the team that designed the '''Apollo Moon-landing system''' and was commended by NASA for the achievement. He held professorships of physics at the University of Sri Lanka (1966–68) and the University of Singapore (1970–72), and taught also at Kentucky and Indonesia. From 1972 to 1975 he was on the technical staff of the '''Aerospace Corporation''' in Los Angeles, and from 1975 to 1977 '''chief of science and technology''' and director of the computer centre for the '''United Nations''' Economic Commission for Africa in Addis Ababa.
