Users interacting with the system can indirectly affect the characters' decisions, even to the point of radically subverting the storyline.

Empirical Algorithmics: draw your own conclusions

In an empirical comparisons of algorithms we might compare run times over a set of benchmark problems to decide which one is fastest, i.e. an algorithmic horse race. Ideally we would like to download source code for the algorithms, compile and then run on our machine. Sometimes code isn't available to download and sometimes resource isn't available to implement all the algorithms we want to stu...

The and secretases transform it into amyloidpeptide, a component of the plaques that riddle the brain in Alzheimer’s disease. Previous work by Larry Goldstein (Univesi...
