This hill is named after the location of the place where I worked (Max-Planck-Institute for Astronomy) until 1997 ('Koenigstuhl' translates to 'King's Chair'). Similar to Planar's Mt.Olympus (last update: 1998-08-31) this is an infinite hill. The difference is that I separated the hill into several categories and I let every program fight every other program:

Any program that reaches rank-50 or higher on the '88-Koenigstuhl will also enter the TOP-50 Koenigstuhl. Programs that fall below rank-50 on both ('88 and TOP-50) hills will be removed from the TOP-50 Koenigstuhl.

Recursive Pspace-Koenigstuhl (204 entries: pspace.tar.gz)
Note: "-P" (randomizing all possible starting positions) will not make the battles reproducible, because the order of the fights makes a difference with P-space.
Flat (un-weighted) scores against all of the Pspace-hill. Scores against top 50%, 25%, 10% of the 'flat' Pspace-hill. (Bold typeface ranks indicate programs that are within the top N-% of the 'flat' hill)
Any program that reaches rank-50 or higher on the "full" hill will also enter the TOP-50 hill. Programs that fall below rank-50 on both hills will be removed from the TOP-50 Koenigstuhl.

"Flat" Scores:
"Recursive" Scores:
Maybe in the future?
The recursive algorighm starts with the round-robin (flat) scores
of the entire hill. The bottom half is fixed in place, then the top half
is re-evaluated only within itself. This process is repeated until the
top part reaches a cut-off size of 50 programs.
If you cannot find your program(s) here, please send your program to
birk AT carnegiescience DOT edu
with a subject line like 'Koenigstuhl entry'.
Please note that the Koenigstuhl is an "archive" hill, ie.
published programs only.
If you would like to see how your program would
do on the Koenigstuhl before you publish it, please download the
appropriate hill and run your program against it.

On each hill a new challanger fights a N-round battle against
every programs
(different from Mt.Olympus) already on the hill.
The result of this battle changes the
score for both opponents:
After doing all battles for a new challenger
I re-order the hill and write the new hill-page(s).
Current:
The recursive algorigthm weights scores against better programs more and
calculates a new hill from the data provided by the "flat" hill.
This procedure is repeated (with decreasing absolute weights) until a stable
hill is reached (or a cut-off of 25 programs is reached).
