6th Computer Olympiad

The CMG 6th Computer Olympiad took place at Ad Fundum of the Universiteit Maastricht in Maastricht, The Netherlands from 18 August 2001 to 23 August 2001. As with each year's Computer Olympiad, computer programs competed against each other at a variety of games, including Amazons, Chess, Chinese Chess, Gipf, LOA, and Shogi.

The chess competition of the Computer Olympiad was a special event, since it was adopted by the ICCA as the 18th World Microcomputer Chess Championship (WMCC 2001).
