That link has the proceedings of this conference, which should really be of interest to everyone here. It has the "coupled snakes" article that Rob used to make his new algorithm, and many others. The proceedings are currently online for free; I have copied them, but if you're at all interested in this stuff you should download them and check 'em out.
