title: System for accepting server predictions in CASP6.
abstract: We describe the new CASP system for collecting and verifying predictions generated by servers. The system was developed to ensure reliable execution of the server assessment part of CASP, with particular emphasis on data consistency. Following the principle that predictions should not be modified by anyone but their authors and to allow a later meaningful assessment, submissions are now verified for correctness of format and contents within the strict 48 hour CASP deadlines for this type of submission. This article also provides an overview of the rules governing server participation in CASP6 and some statistics pertaining to servers in CASP6.
