This book is devoted to a unified treatment of Competitive Markov Decision Processes. It examines these processes from the standpoints of modeling and of optimization, providing newcomers to the field with an accessible account of algorithms, theory, and applications, while also supplying specialists with a comprehensive survey of recent developments. The treatment is self-contained, requiring only some knowledge of linear algebra and real analysis. Topics covered include: Mathematical programming: Markov decision processes (the non-competitive case), and stochastic games via mathematical programming.- Existence, structure and applications: Summable stochastic games, average-reward stochastic games and applications and special classes of stochastic games.- Appendices on: matrix games, bimatrix games and nonlinear programming; a theorem of Hardy and Littlewood; Markov chains; and complex varieties and the limit discount equation.

Le Mans (Widescreen)
Steve McQueen, himself a championship racer, did most of his own driving on the harrowing 81/2 mile Le Mans course - often at speeds exceeding 200 miles per hour. Forty-five international racing stars join Steve Mcqueen in this gritty, nerve-shattering recreation of the toughest car race on earth - Le Mans. Returning to France to compete a year after he's been injured, an American driver (McQueen) finds himself drawn to the widow of a racer who was killed in the same accident. Filmed on location in France, the film's spellbinding cinematography provides a dazzling look at the world's most extraordinary cars and the unique personalities of the people drawn to the race car circuit.
