Note: We receive many requests for material related to the book. In order to receive this material, you have to provide sufficient information about the course you teach to enable us to confirm that you are an instructor. (Examples are: A link to your homepage, a link to the course homepage that states that you are an instructor etc.) Given the many requests for instructor-only material from students and others, we can only reply if you provide the information that we ask for below. If you don't, we will very likely not respond (unless we know that you are an instructor through other means!). We use your email as another form of verification, and so we will not reply to emails from unaffiliated accounts such as hotmail.com and yahoo.com). Please use your email account at your home institution, where you will use the material.

Please send an email to dbbook AT cs DOT wisc DOT edu with the following information:

  • Your name
  • Your address
  • Your institution
  • Some way for us to verify that you are really on the faculty of that institution.
