You may have seen IBM’s Watson challenge two all-time human Jeopardy champions. Now it is your turn to pit your wits, not against Watson, but against other student experts from around the world regarding the X10 programming language! The winner will receive their choice of an X10 t-shirt or a free workshop registration for the PLDI workshop on X10. (Second place will receive the other prize).
Here is how it works. On February 21st, we will post to both the X10 language website and the X10 users group mailing list (around 8 am EST, 1 pm GMT) a set of twelve "questions" Jeopardy-style. The first email received with twelve correct responses will be announced as the winner. The second email received with twelve correct responses will be announced as runner-up. This contest is not open to IBM employees or contractors. It is open to both graduate and undergraduate students worldwide with an interest in X10. Further instructions will be forthcoming on February 21. When the time comes, email your answers to [email protected]. John C. Thomas 1S-A14, IBM T. J.
