Like Pool and Computer Programming? Have We Got A Tournament For You!

If you can write software and like pool, this may just be the competition for you! The Fourth Annual Computational Billiards Championships (ICBC-11) will be held in July and August of 2011, with the finals taking place during the AAAI-11 Conference in San Francisco from August 7-11, 2011. Entry is free and remote participation is possible, so you do not have to travel to the finals.

The ICBC-11 is designed to advance research in computational pool and give researchers a place to compare and test their ideas. Software programs will compete in a simulated game of pool, deciding automatically which shot to attempt in any situation to see which program performs the best.

For further information, visit the tournament website.

I love pool! Especially cues...I have over 35 cues personally and seem to find a new reason to get one all the time. I started PoolCueGuru.com to support my cue buying habit and I love it!
