A few months ago I suggested a number of stepwise increases
in board size to see how the algorithms scaled. It seems to me
having just 2 data points does not say enough about how the
MC (or any other) algorithm scales, so I wanted to be able to
graph some measure of strength against increasing board size.
The responses showed some interest in the normal board sizes,
but not enough for me to think it was worth it to host the servers.
Several of the program authors indicated that they could only run
one size at a time, and I assumed that this meant that having
multiple CGOS servers would only detract from the usefulness of
the 9x9, so I did not start any other size of server.
If things have changed, I have the resources to be a CGOS-N
host.
Cheers,
David

Hi Don,
Clearly UCT and monte carlo is very well suited to 9x9 go. It
works much
better than the traditional computer go algorithms, and it is much,
much
simpler.
Do you have any plans to set up a CGOS server for 19x19 go? I'd
like to see
how well UCT/MC scales to 19x19 go. I don't think it will work
well at
19x19, but I'd like to see some experiments to see if I'm wrong.
