Creating robust artificial intelligence is one of the greatest challenges for game developers, yet the commercial success of a game is often dependent upon the quality of the AI. In this book, Ian Millington brings extensive professional experience to the problem of improving the quality of AI in games. He describes numerous examples from real games and explores the underlying ideas through detailed case studies. He goes further to introduce many techniques little used by developers today. The book's associated web site contains a library of C++ source code and demonstration programs, and a complete commercial source code library of AI algorithms and techniques.

Employers and clients often ask prospective hires to submit a UX portfolio as evidence of their value and achievements. If you’re like many UX designers, however, you probably don’t have a portfolio—or if you do, it might not do your work justice. This practical guide not only shows you how to create an effective UX portfolio, but also shows you how to use it in an interview. Employers and recruiters will be able to use this book to improve their hiring processes.
If you want to land a truly rewarding gig, designing a good UX portfolio is a critical first step.

More than 75 years have passed since the US was attacked by Japan at Pearl Harbor and declared war on the Axis powers. Most of the 16.5 million Americans who fought in World War II in dozens of countries are nearly gone. That includes their stories of service during the war. Kayleen Reusser has gathered 34 of the most exciting, intriguing tales from her 200 interviews with World War II vets. The men and women featured in this book served in every American military branch – Army, Navy, Marines, Army Air Corps, Coast Guard and Merchant Marine from 1941-1945 with harrowing tales: A Pearl Harbor survivor related what it was like that dreadful morning of December 7, 1941, when the world suddenly changed and his life was threatened; an Army medic endured mustard gas testing by his own government on American soil- and survived to treat injured soldiers in Europe; a Navy steward learned his country’s rules of engagement depended on the color of one’s skin; an Army Air Corps pilot’s 44th bombing mission involved flying over Normandy on D-Day

Memristors are a new class of circuit element with the ability to change their resistance value while retaining memory of their current and past resistances. Their small form factor, high density, and fast switching times have sparked research into their applications in modern memory hierarchies. However, these new components pose system design challenges, as well as opportunities. System Design with Memristor Technologies explores design solutions for memristors, covering research and development trends in memristor technology, fabrication, modelling, and applications, and the design and implementation of arithmetic units using memristors. The book begins with an introduction to the principles of system design with memristors, then goes on to address memristor logic gates, arithmetic units for adders, multipliers and dividers, and improved and optimised adder, multiplier and divider designs. The final chapters draw conclusions from the topics covered and explore potential future trends in research into system designs with memristor technologies.

Drone warfare described from the perspectives of drone operators, victims of drone attacks, anti-drone activists, international law, military thinkers, and others. Drones are changing the conduct of war. Deployed at presidential discretion, they can be used in regular war zones or to kill people in such countries as Yemen and Somalia, where the United States is not officially at war. Advocates say that drones are more precise than conventional bombers, allowing warfare with minimal civilian deaths while keeping American pilots out of harm's way. Critics say that drones are cowardly and that they often kill innocent civilians while terrorizing entire villages on the ground. In this book, Hugh Gusterson explores the significance of drone warfare from multiple perspectives, drawing on accounts by drone operators, victims of drone attacks, anti-drone activists, human rights activists, international lawyers, journalists, military thinkers, and academic experts.

Understanding Lasers is a introduction to laser technology, which starts by introducing the basic principles behind lasers, how they work, and optics. It then covers important lasers, their characteristics and accessories, and concludes with an introduction to applications of lasers. In this 4th edition, the author has incorporated a new chapter, "fiber lasers and amplifiers," new topics such as the physics of optical fibers and fiber lasers, disk lasers, and Ytterbium lasers, and several new sections including "laser geometry and implications", "diode laser structures", "optimal parametric sources", and "3D printing and additive manufacturing".
