  • a committee, representing all research groups, influences the design and the running of the competition.


Currently, the Competition is hosted by the Computational Logic Research Group of the University of Innsbruck, Austria (Chair: Aart Middeldorp).

The Competition Committee currently consists of .. and the Chair is ...

Proposed Bylaws for the Termination Competition (Committee)

The committee

  • elects one research group to host the Termination Competition (for some mutually agreeable range of time)
  • votes on design issues related to the Termination Competition (the Host of the competition tries to implement the design, within reason)
  • defines Categories (including problem selection, result evaluation) for Competition
  • reports on results of runs on Categories

Each research group that is interested in the competition, and has proven this interest by having actually taken part, sends one member into the Committee.

The Committee elects a Chair that mainly acts as a secretary for voting and reporting.

The committee can cast votes. Any committer member (mailing list member?) can propose a question for voting.

The question shall be discussed (for some reasonable time) on the mailing list, where input from all list members is welcome. The wiki pages can be used to record the status of discussion.

The Chair then formally announces a reasonable time range where committe members may express their vote (e.g. by emailing to the Chair).

The result of the vote is then announced on the mailing list and recorded on the Wiki page.
