TopCoder Open 2013 Marathon competition

Today's main event at the TopCoder Open is the Marathon Match finals. This year, the competitors are implementing resource harvesting strategies in a Starcraft-like setting - check out Rustyoldman's blog that actually has links that allow you to download the visualizer and start experimenting with solutions yourself! I think the problem this year is awesome - the problem statement is very simple and natural, it's fun to watch programs competing with each other, and it's easy to write and visualize a solution of your own.

Meanwhile, the start of the algorithm competition is getting closer. SnarkNews has launched a prediction contest for it, you can view the current favorites here.

    Seriöse Unterstützung spart Zeit und Nerven. Ghostwriter Agenturen hilft dabei, akademische Arbeiten klar zu strukturieren, Anforderungen zu verstehen und Texte logisch sowie wissenschaftlich korrekt auszuarbeiten.
