Welcome to the homepage for 6.370, the MIT ACM/IEEE Chapter's annual programming competition during IAP. This year we are offering competitors a chance to implement the artificial intelligence for an army of virtual robots in a realtime strategy game.

6.370 has now fallen into shadow. Thank you for your interest.

Mad props go to our sponsors for their generous support of 6.370.

The source code the contest software, including the finals map and some other goodies, are now available for download. 6370-source.jar, 7.1 MB

You can also view the much-maligned, often-rejected MIT spotlight graphic for 6.370.

Finally, if you are interested in implementing your own ideas about software/games or think you can make 6.370 better next year, please consider running for the office of 6.370 chair at the next officers' election. You can find more information about joining the MIT ACM/IEEE Chapter at http://web.mit.edu/ieee/www or by e-mailing ieee@mit.edu.
