Biased Weak Polyform Achievement Games
In a biased weak polyform achievement game, the maker and the breaker
alternately mark previously unmarked cells on an infinite board,
respectively. The maker's goal is to mark a set of cells congruent to a
polyform. The breaker tries to prevent the maker from achieving this goal. A
winning maker strategy for the game can be built from winning
strategies for games involving fewer marks for the maker and the breaker. A new
type of breaker strategy called the priority strategy is introduced. The
winners are determined for all pairs for polyiamonds and polyominoes up
to size four
Hexagonal polyomino weak (1,2)-achievement games
A version of polyomino achievement games is studied, in which the first player marks one cell and the second player marks two cells at each move. All polyominos but one on an infinite 2-dimensional hexagonal board are characterized to be weak winners or losers
Achieving snaky
We prove that the polyomino generally known as snaky is a three-dimensional winner, that it loses on an 8 Ă— 8 board, and that its handicap number is at most one
Fabricate
Bringing together pioneers in design and making within architecture, construction, engineering, manufacturing, materials technology and computation, Fabricate is a triennial international conference, now in its third year (ICD, University of Stuttgart, April 2017). Each year it produces a supporting publication, to date the only one of its kind specialising in Digital Fabrication. The 2017 edition features 32 illustrated articles on built projects and works in progress from academia and practice, including contributions from leading practices such as Foster + Partners, Zaha Hadid Architects, Arup, and Ron Arad, and from world-renowned institutions including ICD Stuttgart, Harvard, Yale, MIT, Princeton University, The Bartlett School of Architecture (UCL) and the Architectural Association
