The span of time from the invention of agriculture to the present.
Time can mean many things, but Hillis's machine needs to track a particularly messy version: Earth-surface clock/calendar time, which is based on a byzantine agglomeration of astronomical rotations, orbits, and perturbations of hugely varying lengths, overlaid with arbitrary cultural whims about how to divide it up.
That meant there was no time to test it before the switch to the year 2000, the most complex date change in the Gregorian system since the year 1600 because it involved a once-in-400-years leap year exemption.

 UNT Libraries: Rare Book & Texana Collections, Victorian Bookbinding Exhibit, Introduction
Prior to 1820, all books were bound by hand in the traditional manner: each printed gathering was sewn to cords, the cords were threaded through the front and back boards, and the cover (usually leather or leather and marbled paper) was wrapped around, being adhered to the spine and the boards.
As machines were invented that could stamp in ink, gold, and colors; that could deeply emboss both leather and cloth; that could "paint" cloth; and that could reproduce "artistic lettering," the effect was cumulative: the more of these techniques a book cover displayed, the stronger its appeal to the book-buying public.
Thus many book covers from the 1880s are deeply embossed cloth, with stamping in ink, gold, and colors, and with lettering of fanciful shapes.

 Boston.com / A&E / Books / An uneven chronicle of a couple over time
Audrey Niffenegger's debut novel, "The Time Traveler's Wife," at turns playful, wearisome, and moving, chronicles the efforts of Henry, a librarian, and Clare, an artist, to build a stable life together despite the unending threat of separation and loss.
The story is told as a series of diary entries alternating between Henry and Clare and jumping around in time, creating a collage-like effect.
"The Time Traveler's Wife" can be an exasperating read, but as a love story it has its appeal: Refreshingly, the novel portrays long-term commitment as something lively and exuberant rather than dutiful and staid, evoking both the comforts it brings us and the tribulations we learn to live with.

 Review of I, Robot
This is, I believe, the third book by Asimov I ever purchased, and my memory of reading it for the first time is unusually vivid.
It is one of the books which built his reputation, in the form of its original publication as a series of stories in the Golden Age Astounding (and, for that matter, one of the books that made the Golden Age golden).
I have always enjoyed reading what he had to say about himself, and yet, strangely, it is nice to have a book in which his robots and characters (including the immortal Susan Calvin) are allowed to take the stage all by themselves.

 MousePlanet | Parenting in the Park with Adrienne Krock
Unfortunately, as soon as he invented the time machine, famous Americans began disappearing from history books because they gave up on their dreams.
This book is part of the 70-year-old Childhood of Famous Americans series and was originally written in 1969.
The book rather suddenly ends with one page about honors he received, one paragraph about the California Institute of the Arts (which was profoundly influenced by Disney), and no mention of his death, which occurred three years prior to the original publication of the book.

This is the first book of the "Lost Millennium" trilogy.
I was at a SF convention panel where Mike was on it and he made the series seem quite interesting (of course, this was the same panel where Steve Barnes made his Lion's Blood book sound good, so...).

In some cases, these are strictly finite state machines, whereas, in other cases, the approach handles infinite state spaces as well.
Chapter 6 introduces a "dual language approach": A timed version of Petri nets is used to describe the operational behavior of a given real-time system, and a logic language is used to specify and to reason about the system properties.
Chapter 9 introduces symbolic model checking, a practical technique for analyzing state machine models, which checks all possible states of the model for violations of a property of interest.

Google Book Search is a lot like Project Gutenberg, but with a few different options, like an online reader and PDF downloads of the books.
It is common sense that a book in the public domain have its free results appear first, however there are no public domain results for it, just a bunch of crap if you search for pay books.
It's one thing to preserve our heritage, but it's worth taking the time to decide that a given book is such a lot of twaddle that it's just filling up space and no-one wants or needs it.
