Time: Saturday, November 3, 2007
The PC2 team software was not changed between version 8.6
and 8.7. We are using the old version because that environment was
thoroughly tested last year.
Each team will be allowed to use one PC-compatible computer (such as Dell
or equivalent). The guaranteed configuration of the computer includes a US
keyboard, mouse and color monitor.
The programming languages of the contest are C, C++ and Java.
Pascal is not longer provided. See above for a list of available
compilers and versions.
The software will be installed in standard configuration and we will
follow as closely as possible the general suggestions that you can
find in

Note that we will follow the
official schedule for the contest but there are modifications
regarding the registration and morning: we are planning for a practice

After the practice you are invited for lunch. And after the contest we
have the award ceremony with pizza (or something similar).
