Computer Information

The IMHO best computer magazine in Germany c't - magazin für computertechnik (in German .

Here is the page for TeXnicians: dante .

Artificial Intelligence (mainly in Games)

I've been interested in game programming for years. Game trees, alpha beta, scout, heuristics and selective searching, etc. Newest (to me): Neural nets, self learning backgammon machines etc. Therefore I once tested Franks own Search Engine on the subjects "Computer Go, Artifical Intelligence" once, here is the result .

Warning some of the following links might be quite old.

Jay Scott (jay@forum.swarthmore.edu) on Machine Learning and Backgammon: His ML page and his backgammon page . Sutton on Neural Networks , this is about TD-Learning etc.

Another recent area: Bridge & AI

Progress in computer chess? Here a view from the top Deep Blue

More Links

This is the homepage of a very interesting man: Don E. Knuth . I learned a lot from his books and articles. Somehow his work though about very recent subjects seems to stay fresh for a long time.

Even in a gamers world there should be some more important things. Amnesty International cares about many of the most important things!

A German culture page Kultur Pur e.V. , with some gamers contents.

Lots of more links (have you seen anything else on WWW?) for Surfing .

German edition of the IMHO best magazine of popular science: Spektrum der Wissenschaft

I tried and used various search machines, but often metacrawler worked best for me! And anyway it shows you the way to some other of the more powerful recent general searchers. Another (currently 1999) upstarting Searcher, which provided me with surprisingly good results is Google which seems to be based on some recent advances in web spider technology.

I Ching

Well, it has been hard to find german translations of Philip K. Dicks books recently. Though I never completely understood his books, I liked the ones I've read, as C.G. Ballards books BTW. After I've bought Philip K. Dicks "The Man in the High Castle" in Oxford this (1997) summer, a book where the I Ching plays an important role, I searched the net for some information. And I really like this site . Maybe this is a different kind of search machine ;-)
