This book arose out of a number of different contexts, and numerous
persons have contributed to its conception and development. It had
its origin in a project initiated jointly with the IBM Cambridge
Scien tific Center, particularly with Dr. Rhett Tsao, then of that
Center. We are grateful to Mr. Norman Rasmussen, Manager of the IBM
Scientific Center Complex, for his initial support. The work is
being carried on at Brown University with generous support from the
Office of Computing Activities of the National Science Foundation
(grants GJ-174 and GJ-7l0); we are grateful to Dr. John Lehmann of
this Office for his interest and encouragement. Professors Donald
McClure and Richard Vitale of the Division of Applied Mathematics
at Brown University contributed greatly to the project and taught
courses in its spirit. We are indebted to them and to Dr. Tore
Dalenius of the University of Stockholm for helpful criticisms of
the manuscript. The final stimulus to the book's completion came
from an invLtation to teach a course at the IBM European Systems
Research Institute at Geneva. We are grateful to Dr. J.F.
Blackburn, Director of the Institute, for his invitation, and to
him and his wife Beverley for their hospitality. We are greatly
indebted to Mrs. Katrina Avery for her splendid secretarial and
editorial work on the manuscript."
