Minor League Presidents
MINOR LEAGUE PRESIDENTS compiled by Tony Baseballs www.minorleaguebaseballs.com This document deals only with professional minor leagues (both independent and those affiliated with Major League Baseball) since the foundation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (popularly known as Minor League Baseball, or MiLB) in 1902. Collegiate Summer leagues, semi-pro leagues, and all other non-professional leagues are excluded, but encouraged! The information herein was compiled from several sources including the Encyclopedia of Minor League Baseball (2nd Ed.), Baseball Reference.com, Wikipedia, official league websites (most of which can be found under the umbrella of milb.com), and a great source for defunct leagues, Indy League Graveyard. I have no copyright on anything here, it's all public information, but it's never all been in one place before, in this layout. Copyrights belong to their respective owners, including but not limited to MLB, MiLB, and the independent leagues. The first section will list active leagues. Some have historical predecessors that will be found in the next section. LEAGUE ASSOCIATIONS The modern minor league system traces its roots to the formation of the National Association of Professional Baseball Leagues (NAPBL) in 1902, an umbrella organization that established league classifications and a salary structure in an agreement with Major League Baseball. The group simplified the name to “Minor League Baseball” in 1999. MINOR LEAGUE BASEBALL Patrick Powers, 1901 – 1909 Michael Sexton, 1910 – 1932 -

Tile-Based Method for Procedural Content Generation
Tile-based Method for Procedural Content Generation Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David Maung Graduate Program in Computer Science and Engineering The Ohio State University 2016 Dissertation Committee: Roger Crawfis, Advisor; Srinivasan Parthasarathy; Kannan Srinivasan; Ken Supowit Copyright by David Maung 2016 Abstract Procedural content generation for video games (PCGG) is a growing field due to its benefits of reducing development costs and adding replayability. While there are many different approaches to PCGG, I developed a body of research around tile-based approaches. Tiles are versatile and can be used for materials, 2D game content, or 3D game content. They may be seamless such that a game player cannot perceive that game content was created with tiles. Tile-based approaches allow localized content and semantics while being able to generate infinite worlds. Using techniques such as aperiodic tiling and spatially varying tiling, we can guarantee these infinite worlds are rich playable experiences. My research into tile-based PCGG has led to results in four areas: 1) development of a tile-based framework for PCGG, 2) development of tile-based bandwidth limited noise, 3) development of a complete tile-based game, and 4) application of formal languages to generation and evaluation models in PCGG. ii Vita 2009................................................................B.S.
