Dear All, We will be starting preparation of the teams for this year's ACM ICPC contest (for more information about the contest see below). The regional contest this year is on October 25, 2008 (http://midatl.radford.edu/), usually at JHU Baltimore, and the World Finals will be in Stockholm in April 2009. Please let me know if you are interested in participating this year. As usual, we are hoping to field two teams. The eligibility criteria can be found at the link below. Graduate students born in or after 1985 will usually qualify for this. Drop me an email in case of doubt. http://icpc.baylor.edu/icpc/regionals/EligibilityDecisionTree.pdf Feel free to forward this email to other students who might be interested. Best, Amol. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ACM ICPC (International Collegiate Programming Contest) is the biggest programming contest among colleges in the world. In the contest, teams of 3 try to solve (usually) 8 tasks withing 5 hours. The solutions are short programs which are submitted to a server where the programs are compiled and tested against the judges' data. ACM ICPC is a two-tier contest where teams first compete in regional contests and then the winners of the regional contests proceed to the World Finals. Besides being a wonderful opportunity for networking and making new friendships, the World Finals is an event where "world's finest university students of the computing sciences and engineering" become great visibility among top companies of the IT industry such as IBM, Google, etc. More information about the contest is available at: http://icpc.baylor.edu/icpc/ A live archive with past problems where solutions can be judged is available at: http://acmicpc-live-archive.uva.es/nuevoportal/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
