Welcome to TopCoder.
Our model is built on three key beliefs:
* Intelligence and talent are universal, not limited to one country or one company.
* The best and smartest ideas should prevail, regardless of where they come from.
* The only way to determine who has a better solution is through competition.
The foundation of TopCoder is a global community of thousands. From coders and contractors to students and hobbyists, they're brought together by a love of programming, a passion for learning, and the
drive to compete.
Together with our community, we established a rigorous and disciplined software development process that leverages our unique competition model. Based on a growing catalog of reusable software components - built and tested by our members - this process generates high-quality applications quickly and efficiently.
Through competition, the TopCoder community has revolutionized the way software is built.

The "International Journal of Critical Computer-Based Systems" (IJCCBS) is a quarterly research journal by Inderscience Publishers. It focuses on engineering and verification of complex computer-based systems (where complex means large, distributed and heterogeneous) in critical applications, with special emphasis on model-based approaches and industrial case-studies. Critical computer-based systems include real-time control, fly/brake-by-wire, on-line transactional and web servers, biomedical apparels, networked devices for telecommunications, environmental monitoring, infrastructure protection, etc.
