Book Description
This book is the first and only one of its kind on the topic of Cops and Robbers games, and more generally, on the field of vertex pursuit games on graphs. The book is written in a lively and highly readable fashion, which should appeal to both senior undergraduates and experts in the field (and everyone in between). One of the main goals of the book is to bring together the key results in the field; as such, it presents structural, probabilistic, and algorithmic results on Cops and Robbers games. Several recent and new results are discussed, along with a comprehensive set of references. The book is suitable for self-study or as a textbook, owing in part to the over 200 exercises. The reader will gain insight into all the main directions of research in the field and will be exposed to a number of open problems.

Book Description
The Grand Master of Mystery delivers “nerve-end-entertainment” when two of New York’s finest set out to become two of New York’s richest (Kirkus Reviews). Tom and Joe have been walking the beat on the mean streets of the Big Apple longer than they can remember—or care to. They’ve been good cops, protecting the public and holding the line against crime and chaos in a city that has plenty of both. And all they have to show for it is a whole lot of nothing. But now the partners have devised a scheme to make all their dreams come true: the perfect heist. Tom and Joe are going to rob the fat cats on Wall Street for millions and walk away clean. With the right connections and the proper execution, there’s no way their plan can fail. And that’s why they’re so surprised when everything goes totally, hysterically wrong . . . With Cops and Robbers, the three-time Edgar Award–winning author, named a Grand Master by the Mystery Writers of America, offers “another very hot and successful” novel with “a siren shrill finale” (Kirkus Reviews). Praise for Donald E. Westlake “Westlake has no peer in the realm of comic mystery novelists.” —San Francisco Chronicle “No writer can excel Donald E. Westlake.” —Los Angeles Times

Role Play: Cops & Robbers - Erotic Short Story
Author: B. J. Hermansson
Publisher: Lindhardt og Ringhof
ISBN: 8726311356
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 18
Book Description
" 'Are you ready for a punish-fuck?' he wonders. Her lips are still wrapped around his cock and Angelika can only nod her reply. He pulls out from her beautiful, plump lips." Today Angelika and Ludvig are doing a role play together: Cop & Robber. They will leave their ordinary lives, musts, personalities and set roles behind to instead take on a whole new existence and transform into someone else. Albeit briefly. Amidst other people, they will play the first scene in public downtown. Part two will, however, be enacted behind closed doors. Angelika is the robber. Ludvig is the police. The tension between them is almost palpable, as electrically charged as it is thrilling. The props, the dialogue, the roles - everything is set. They are full of erotic anticipation and virtually trembling with horniness... Let the game begin. The Roleplay: Cops & Robbers is an erotic short story about the thrill and possibilities of transforming into someone else for a moment. B. J. Hermansson skillfully creates short stories that encompass both quick-witted prose and poetic descriptions. The underlying tone in these texts often inspires the reader to contemplate and question our established, pre-conceived ideas, especially when it comes to the normal, standards and sexuality.

Pages : 396
Book Description
The 34th International Workshop on Graph-Theoretic Concepts in Computer Science (WG 2008) took place in Van Mildert College at Durham University, UK, 30 June – 2 July 2008. The approximately 80 participants came from va- ous countries all over the world, among them Australia, Brazil, Canada, Chile, Czech Republic, France, Greece, Hungary,Israel, Italy, Japan, The Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Spain, Switzerland, UK and the USA. WG 2008 continued the series of 33 previous WG conferences. Since 1975, the WG conference has taken place 21 times in Germany, four times in The Netherlands, twice in Austria as well as once in Italy, Slovakia, Switzerland, the Czech Republic, France, Norway and now in the UK. The WG conference traditionally aims at uniting theory and practice by demonstrating how graph-theoretic concepts can be applied to various areas in computer science, or by extracting new problems from applications. The goal is to present recent researchresults and to identify and exploredirections of future research. The continuing interest in the WG conferences was re?ected in the number and quality of submissions; 76 papers were submitted and in an evaluation p- cess with four reports per submission, 30 papers were accepted by the Program Committee for the conference. Due to the high number of submissions and the limited schedule of 3 days, various good papers could not be accepted. Therewereexcellent invited talks by Giuseppe Di Battista(UniversitàRoma Tre,Italy)onalgorithmicaspectsof(un)-stableroutingintheInternet,byLeszek G?sieniec (University of Liverpool, UK) on memory-e?cient graph exploration, andbyMartinGrohe(Humboldt-UniversitätzuBerlin,Germany)onalgorithmic meta theorems.
