Artificial Intelligence Today
Artificial Intelligence is one of the most fascinating and unusual areas of academic study to have emerged this century. For some, AI is a true scientific discipline, that has made important and fundamental contributions to the use of computation for our understanding of nature and phenomena of the human mind; for others, AI is the black art of computer science. Artificial Intelligence Today provides a showcase for the field of AI as it stands today. The editors invited contributions both from traditional subfields of AI, such as theorem proving, as well as from subfields that have emerged more recently, such as agents, AI and the Internet, or synthetic actors. The papers themselves are a mixture of more specialized research papers and authorative survey papers. The secondary purpose of this book is to celebrate Springer-Verlag's Lecture Notes in Artificial Intelligence series.
Changes of Problem Representation
The purpose of our research is to enhance the efficiency of AI problem solvers by automating representation changes. We have developed a system that improves the description of input problems and selects an appropriate search algorithm for each given problem. Motivation. Researchers have accumulated much evidence on the impor tance of appropriate representations for the efficiency of AI systems. The same problem may be easy or difficult, depending on the way we describe it and on the search algorithm we use.

Before Elvis
An essential work for rock fans and scholars, Before Elvis: The Prehistory of Rock ‘n’ Roll surveys the origins of rock ’n’ roll from the minstrel era to the emergence of Bill Haley and Elvis Presley. Unlike other histories of rock, Before Elvis offers a far broader and deeper analysis of the influences on rock music. Dispelling common misconceptions, it examines rock’s origins in hokum songs and big-band boogies as well as Delta blues, detailing the embrace by white artists of African-American styles long before rock ’n’ roll appeared.

The Spear the Cross and the Gun
Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people are warned that the cover and inside pages of this book contain images of people who have died. We pay our respects to those who have passed away. The Aboriginal tribe the Yolngu, of North-east Arnhem Land, had always fiercely resisted intruders into their little-known and untamed country. Why then, did Methodist missionaries seek them out? One answer could be due to the Bible; another could be that by the 1920s, the future of the Aboriginal Yolngu people of North-east Arnhem Land was dire, due to European contact throughout the country. What did happen to the Yolngu living by their own laws at the time of the arrival of the first Christian missio...
