2nd International CSVN Tournament 31 May-2 June 2002 Leiden, Netherlands This is an invitation to potential participants of the second international CSVN tournament, which is played in three consecutive days. With this tournament you can keep in contact with other chess programmers and keep momentum in the development of your program. The playing tempo will also be reasonably swift, 90 minutes per player for the whole game. The playing hall opens on Friday at 12:00am, Saturday and Sunday at 09:00am. Each day three rounds are played. On Saturday there will be a break for the annual CSVN member's meeting. Here is information for potential participants. First some rules: · Entry is open for all nationalities. CSVN membership is not required for this tournament. · The programmer, being someone who programmed at least a significant part of the program must register as a participant, possibly together with other team members, who have also contributed. · The source code of the program may not contain pieces of published programs, unless the authors are in the team. · The participant arranges a computer by himself, so no equipment is made available by the organisation, but on request at registration an Ethernet UTP port with shared 33 kbit/s Telnet/Internet connection will be made available for remote access. In order to use this, you need to bring a network-enabled (laptop) computer with UTP cable to Leiden. Although not strictly required, we request the programmers to be present themselves to operate their program and explain its background. Please register by sending e-mail or ordinary mail to Cock de Gorter, Valkenboskade 607, 2563 JE 's Gravenhage, mailto:cockdegorter@hetnet.nl before April 20th. He is interested in the following information: · Name of the program and names, roles and presence of the team members. · Names of all authors of the source code of the program · Correspondence and e-mail address · Indication of playing strength (for new programs, recent games are requested) · Type of computer and number of processors on which the program is running simultaneously · Used algorithms, operating system, programming language and compiler · Size of the program (lines of code) and the opening book (positions) We look forward to your entry.
