The second round of the AI competition at CS Games 2005

The CS Games is an annual computer science competition hosted by various universities. The competition typically attracts more than 30 teams (between 6 and 10 members per team) from universities from across North America, but primarily from Canada and northeastern United States. It is open to undergraduate students majoring in computer science, computer engineering, software engineering and related fields.

[edit] Hosting

Historically, the competition has always been hosted in Quebec even though there is no rule about the location of the event. For this reason, the competition has always been bilingual (French and English).

The 10th Edition of the CS Games will be held at the University of Manitoba February 24-26, 2012.

[edit] Events

The events are primarily focused on theoretical computer science, computer programming and socials aspects, but also include other competitions such as sports. As an example, the 2009 edition events were: artificial intelligence, theory of computation & algorithms, operations research, mathematics & logic, team software engineering, web design, assembly, debugging, scripting, sports.
