    "AMD Developer Central, AMD's program to support
software developers, is pleased to sponsor the 2006
TopCoder Open and help showcase the unique creativity and
genius shown by TopCoder members in this competition,"
said Richard Finlayson, Director Segment and Industry
Solutions, Software Strategy and Alliances Group, AMD. 
"This year's competition promises to be one of the
best.  Software development is at a key juncture as demand
for 64-bit and multi-core hardware enables new ways to
develop and deploy operating systems and applications.  By
promoting best practices in software development on the
latest hardware, this competition brings together the
finest talent in the business to build better code that
solves challenges and benefits everyone in the
community." 

    TopCoder Competitions 
    TopCoder tournaments are known worldwide as the most
grueling, comprehensive test of skill in the field of
competitive programming.  The events allow competitors to
solve complex algorithmic problems and design and develop
working pieces of reusable software.  All current industry
standard technologies are incorporated, including Java,
C++, C#, VB.NET, UML, J2EE and .NET.
    The TopCoder Open (TCO) is host to both professional
and collegiate developers.  This event is dominated by the
highest rated members in the TopCoder community, but enjoys
heavy participation and spectatorship from developers of all
levels.  The TopCoder Collegiate Challenge (TCCC) involves
thousands of university-level students majoring in
everything from computer science to mathematics to applied
physics.  The students compete head-to-head over several
online elimination rounds until the best are flown in to
compete in person at the onsite finals.  As with the TCO,
the destination of the finals varies from year to year.  In
the past, TopCoder has hosted the TCCC during the spring
timeframe, while the TCO would take place during the fall
months.  This year the order of the two flagship events has
been reversed to better meet the needs of both academic and
corporate recruiting cycles.
    "The TopCoder Community exemplifies the new breed
of dynamic global environments based on a great breadth and
depth of accumulated knowledge and by perfecting technique
with communal mentoring," said Rob Hughes, President
and COO of TopCoder, Inc. "TopCoder welcomes AMD as a
sponsor that shares our passion for recognizing the
innovation, creative thinking and achievements that are the
hallmarks of our community."
