As not all subscribers of c.t.t read the Comm. of the ACM, I want to
mention two references I've found which are directed to music
typesetting and are perhaps of interest:
@article{typo:blostein:music,
author = {Dorothea Blostein},
title = {Justification of Printed Music},
journal = cacm,
volume = 34,
number = 3,
month = mar,
year = 1991,
pages = {88-99},
annote = {Presents problems and solutions of the task to create a
correct spacing while setting notes. The proposed method also takes
the temporal relationship of notes into account. Handles
two-dimensional layout, e.g., staffs and texts.}
}
@techreport{typo:hegazy:music,
author = {W. Hegazy and J. Gourlay},
title = {Optimal Line Breaking in Music},
year = 1988,
institution = {Department of Computer and Information Science, The
Ohio State University},
type = {Tech.\ Report},
number = {OSU-CISRC-8/87-TR33},
annote = {Not read yet. Is quoted as ``many of these [music
typesetting] problems are addressed [\dots], using a generalization of
\TeX{}'s line-breaking model.''~\cite{typo:blostein:music} (In fact,
\TeX{} is spelled TEX.) {\it Perhaps J. Gourlay is John? Where does he
work now?}
}
