STARSHIP GLORY - BLAZE OF GLORY - ALAMO BAY - From the mind of critically-acclaimed writer Tony Lee and the amazing art of Sam Hart comes a new story set in the Starship Troopers universe! We follow a raw recruit, Will Tanner as he joins a Mobile Infantry unit - Tamari''s Tigers - on a rescue mission to Alamar ''ALAMO'' Bay. But when they arrive, they find that the base is surrounded by bugs, and that the base itself has secrets - secrets that cannot be let out into the world! Meanwhile Sergeant Lock meets an old ''friend'' and realizes a chance to get out of the war for good, even if it means murder to do so. Can Will keep his wits together to not only fight the attacking bugs, but to save a young privates life? Based on the bestselling novel by Robert A. Heinlein, ALAMO BAY takes the best parts from the book, TV series and movie - and has cameos from loved characters like Carmen, Rico and Zim!

Vicar Obadiah Demurral no longer wants to worship God - he wants to be God! Obadiah Demurral may be a vicar, but knowing what master he truly serves would come as a shock to the villagers of Thorpe. Craving power and filled with insatiable greed, he has welcomed a darkness into his life that enables him to do terrible things, in the hope of harnessing control over the universe. He will stop at nothing, and as a Shadowmancer - a sorcerer who speaks to the dead - he even commands restless souls to do his bidding. Young Raphah has come from another continent to reclaim the precious artifact - dangerously volatile in the wrong hands - that Demurral has stolen. Even younger and less experienced in the ways of battle are Thomas and Kate, accidentally drawn into this war between good and evil, this struggle against Demurral that brings them face-to-face with the powers of darkness in an epic battle. This work is based on the best-selling novel by G.P Taylor, author of Shadowmancer, Tersias, Wormwood and The Tizzle Sisters.

Blaze of Glory follows a new Mobile Infantry unit, Tamari''s Tigers, and the fortunes of yet another raw recruit in the war against the bugs - William Tanner. The Tigers are sent on a recon mission to find out what has happened to an outpost only to discover Alamo Bay deserted and a recently arrived bug invasion swarm. (****Additional text****) You''ve read the book. You''ve watched the TV series. You''ve seen the movie. You know by heart the tale of Rico, Dizzy and Carmen. But in the war against the bugs, there is more than just one unit... Welcome to the world of Tamari''s Tigers. Following the Pluto Campaign, the Tigers are sent on what seems to be a simple search and retrivial mission - a research base called Alamar Bay - but what they find there is far more than they ever imagined - a base overrun with bugs, a planet swarming with the enemy, and a band of survivors who will kill to save their secret research material. And for Trooper Will Tannen, fresh from boot camp, he finds that things aren''t the same as the recruitment programmes, as his friends die around him, his sergeant seems traitorious, and his very life is in jeopardy... STARSHIP TROOPERS - ALAMO BAY is the first book in the BLAZE OF GLORY trilogy, chartering the rise, fall and rebirth of Will Tannen, a trilogy that has already been described as ''Sharpe in space''.

This trilogy will give you new characters to care about as well as bringing in cameos from favourites from the original material, like Zim, Rico and Ibanez.

Electrical Engineering Modeling and Asynchronous Distributed Simulation Analyzing Complex Systems Whether you are designing intelligent transportation systems or buffers in ATM switches, you will find key asynchronous distributed simulation techniques in this insightful book. These techniques will help revolutionize your large-scale systems designs of today and tomorrow. Drawing on nearly 20 years of experience in modeling and simulation, the authors bring you the first book to present fundamental principles for asynchronous distributed simulation. Throughout Modeling and Asynchronous Distributed Simulation, you will explore a wealth of case studies that provide real-world approaches to a range of diverse technology disciplines. You will also discover essentials to improve your understanding of complex systems, including: * Determination of the simulation timestep * Analysis of accuracy for simulation results * Examination of how simulation results yield qualitative insights into complex system behavior * Generation of input stimuli * Future research trends in simulation This valuable text offers systems designers, graduate students, and practicing computer science engineers both basic principles and complex concepts of modeling and asynchronous distributed simulation.

For many transportation systems, the cost of expanding the infrastructure is too high. Therefore, engineers must shift their focus to improving the quality of transportation within the existing infrastructure.
