The recent remarkable developments of interior point algorithms began in 1984 with
Karmarkar's polynomial-time interior point algorithm for linear programs using a log-
arithmic potential function and a projective transformation. The progress has been
made so rapidly and extensively that it seems difficult to get a comprehensive...

During my experience of teaching aircraft structures, I have felt the need for a textbook written specifically
for students of aeronautical engineering. Although there have been a number of excellent books
written on the subject, they are now either out of date or too specialized in content to fulfill the requirements
of an...
An academic dynasty has come together to write an excellent textbook on information retrieval.
Stefan Buttcher, Charles Clarke, and Gordon Cormack make up three generations of stellar
information retrieval researchers with over fifty years of combined experience. Buttcher was
Clarke's doctoral student, and Clarke was Cormack's...
What really makes a video game story interactive? What's the best way to create an interactive story? How much control should players be given? Do they really want that control in the first place? Do they even know what they want-or are their stated desires at odds with the unconscious preferences? All of these questions and more are...
The present work grew out of lecture notes I prepared for a Vh hour tutorial

in San Francisco on February 27, 1987. I have just completed a substantial
update of the material, including the addition of several topics. My main
purpose is to provide a...
