The Fourth Answer Set Programming Competition is an '''open''' event:
any system based on a declarative problem solving language '''can participate'''.
The Fifth Answer Set Programming Competition will take place as one of the events within the [[http://vsl2014.at/olympics/|FLoC Olympic Games]], held in Vienna in the context of the [[http://vsl2014.at/|Vienna Summer of Logic 2014]]. The event is officially affiliated with the [[http://users.ugent.be/~tschrijv/ICLP2014/|30th International Conference on Logic Programming]] (ICLP 2014).

== What is the Open ASP Competition? ==

The Open ASP Competition has two tracks: the [[MSCompetition|Model & Solve Track]] and the [[SystemCompetition|System Track]].

 * In the '''Model & Solve Track''', a number of problem domain specifications are given, together with a set of instances thereof. All you need to participate is a system able to model using a declarative specification paradigm of any sort, and some manpower for preparing benchmark solutions. Winners are awarded on the basis of their time performance and, for optimization problems, on the basis of the quality of their solutions. Note that we are more interested at comparing systems and their performance on standard problems, rather than measuring the modelling 'trickery' of participants: this is why you will have several months for preparing declarative specifications and your system, so to make affordable the burden of modelling a number of problems, also for small teams. Problem specification can be freely exchanged among participants whenever they use the same input language.

 * The '''System track''' is reserved to Answer Set Programming systems, able to cope with a fixed problem specification language. In the 3d competition, the standard language was [[http://www.mat.unical.it/aspcomp2011/files/LanguageSpecifications.pdf|ASP-Core]]. The 4th ASP Competition will be held on an extension of ASP-Core expected to be released by September 30th 2011.
