NYA and John Young
I bought three books for you guys at B Dalton at the Cottonwood
mall in Rio Rancho last night.
One is titled
LOS ALAMOS
and the development of the
ATOMIC BOMB
by Robert W. Seidel
The book covers von Nuemann, Feynman, Ulam, and Metropolis.
These guys pioneered use of Monte Carlo techniques in nuclear bomb
design.
My former MS and Ph.D. student Ted Lewis
http://www.friction-free-economy.com
told me some years ago that the GFSR
http://www-hto.usc.edu/software/seqaln/doc/html/gfsr.3.html
is used the nuclear bomb simulations.
We were into Monte Carlo work in the '70s

But in the '80s I WAS FORCED into the business of electronic locks, data
authentication
and fuzing weapons.

Lets ALL hope for settlement. So that we CAN ALL move on to better
projects.
