Hello, For my master thesis at UCLouvain (www.uclouvain.be), I wrote a VIFF application for mental poker. Both files are in the .zip that can be found at http://www.jovds.be/viff_mental_poker.zip Usage is : python mental_poker.py [player_config_file] [number_of_players] [threshold]
This simulates the shuffling and the dealing of the cards to the players. Both Active and Passive runtimes can obviously be used. To get an idea of the performances, for a 10 players games with threshold 3 and Active Runtime, it takes less than 20 seconds on a single core of an Intel Q6600 (2.4ghz) (one computer per player). Each player has to send 250 KB of data (headers included). I will soon post my thesis, I first need to write some extra's in it. I hope maybe this could be a nice demo to illustrate the power of VIFF. I would also like to thank everyone here for their help, and wish good luck in the future development of VIFF. Best regards, Jonathan Van den Schrieck _______________________________________________ viff-devel mailing list (http://viff.dk/) viff-devel@viff.dk http://lists.viff.dk/listinfo.cgi/viff-devel-viff.dk
