Details and News

At the moment we have started to prepare the 2013 version, i.e., implementing new features and completing the documentation. Changes will be in the visualization and the map generation. Also we will change the way actions depend on the visibility range.

If you're interested in the contest please consider registering to our Mailing List. We would be glad if you would consider taking part this year.

Additionally, we compiled the results of the 2012 version. All results, charts and tables are included in the Technical Report (published in the next days). A shorter version can be found in the ProMAS 2012 post-proceedings (published soon).

And last but not least if you're on facebook you can subscribe to our site.
