There is now a CONTENT FREEZE for Mercury while we switch to a new platform. It began on Friday, March 10 at 6pm and will end on Wednesday, March 15 at noon. No new content can be created during this time, but all material in the system as of the beginning of the freeze will be migrated to the new platform, including users and groups. Functionally the new site is identical to the old one. webteam@gatech.edu

10th DIMACS Implementation Challenge – Graph Partitioning and Graph Clustering
http://www.cc.gatech.edu/dimacs10/index.shtml
Co-sponsored by DIMACS and by the Command, Control, and Interoperability Center for Advanced Data Analysis (CCICADA), Pacific Northwest National Laboratory, Sandia National Laboratories, Intel Corporation and Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG)
DIMACS Implementation Challenges address questions of determining realistic algorithm performance where worst case analysis is overly pessimistic and probabilistic models are too unrealistic: experimentation can provide guides to realistic algorithm performance where analysis fails."
For the 10th DIMACS Implementation Challenge, the two related problems of graph partitioning and graph clustering were chosen. Graph partitioning and graph clustering are among the aforementioned questions or problem areas where theoretical and practical results deviate significantly from each other, so that experimental outcomes are of particular interest.
