What is Grid Wars II ?
======================
GRID WARS II is the parallel programming challenge, where competing
battle programs written in CxC ("C by C") fight for survival of the
fittest in a grid of processors. It will be held live at the
ClusterWorld Conference and Expo in San Jose, June 23-26.
HP is again sponsoring the Grid Wars challenge and is providing
the computing platform and prizes for this event.

May 26, 2003 - The LINUX GRIDWARS II Challenge Kit is released.
It includes the free CxC JIT Interpreter 'pl' and a programmable
test tool to run many battle in batch mode and gain statistical
information. LINUX GRIDWARS is downloadable at:

The parallel programming language CxC was created for a new breed of
inventors. Universities and research labs are asked to write battle
programs and upload them to the GRID WARST website, where they
compete for prizes and industry recognition. Those interested in
parallel programming - including scientists, engineers, programmers
and students - can download the whole GRID WARS creation and training
software from the web site www.gridwars.com, to easily create battle
programs and compete. GRID WARS participants create their battle
programs
under LINUX or Windows. The championship will take place on a
LINUX-based cluster system, presented live at the ClusterWorld
Conference
and Expo.
