accomplish something that they want. Game theory is the study of all strategic decision making. However, my paper is on the topic of algorithmic game theory, which is the application of game theory to algorithm design. “Algorithmic game theory is the area in the intersection of algorithm design and game theory whose goal is to design algorithms in logical and strategic environments.” (Roberto and Goodrich, 2002) In order to better discuss the topic of algorithmic game theory, I am first going to discuss
Video Game Violence and its effects on Gamers In recent years there has been a significant increase of shooting incidents, specifically in America. When there is a shooting event the media is quick to question if the suspect had a history of playing violent video games. There is already the initial connection between video game violence and aggression; but is this connection scientifically correct? This topic interests me because of the increase in school shootings and violence. I have personally
I was pleasantly surprised by Against the Gods. I expected this book to be a typical dry book on a given financial subject, detailing use, application, and theory. I completely took for granted the fact that math, particularly risk, has history. The author did a fantastic job of painting a picture and explaining how, why and when concepts we use today came into being. While reading this book I became excited about risk and statistical analysis. The author is Peter L. Bernstein graduate of Harvard

Child Developmental Theories When an infant arrives in the world they are helpless tiny humans who depend on adults for every need from love, to feeding them. It is amazing how these tiny babies grow into adults able to make decisions and become self-dependent. There are many theories about how children develop and what roles the environment plays, what people affect their lives and how events can shape their personalities. Some of these children have and easy life and some have
those actions.” [5] In this research paper I am going to take you through the history, basics, and advances. These elements are very important to know because without them software designers would be lost. To start, one of the biggest patterns in the history of software is the shift from computation design to presentation design. Since our machines have become stronger more time has been spent on presantation. “The history of that progression can be conveniently broken into three eras: batch (1945-1968)
Though women have played an integral part in the history of the discipline of anthropology, it was not until the early 1970’s that the field of anthropology and gender, or feminist anthropology emerged. Sex and gender roles have always been a vital part of any ethnographic study, but the contributors of this theory began to address the androcentric nature of anthropology itself. The substantial gap in information concerning the study of women was perceived as a male bias, a prejudice made more apparent
Mr. Satoshi Tajiri is a Japanese video game designer well-known as the creator of the multibillion dollar franchise, Pokémon, as well as the founder of video game developer, Gamefreak. In addition, Tajiri worked on several other video game projects that include Mario spin-offs and The Legend of Zelda. In this paper, I will describe Satoshi’s personality based on Henry Murray’s system of needs involving achievement motivation. First, I will describe Murray’s system of needs and emphasize the importance
a quick examination, Almond and Verba and Putnam appear to be asking the similar basic research question: what are the determinants for democracy’s success? Detail analysis, however, brings their different research design, modes of analysis, and conclusions into focus. Putnam’s work (1993) reinforces Almond and Verba’s work on civic culture, by emphasize the role of individuals to their community using the concept of social capital. Summary of Major Arguments In the Civic Culture, Almond and
