EESTEC LC Budapest
and the
Károly Simonyi College for Advanced Studies
are proud to present the
9th BME International 24-hour Programming Contest
1-3 May, 2009
The challenge You have always been dreaming of...
Have
you ever felt that you were stuck with a problem and there was no way
out? Or have you ever heard the rooster crowing while you were still
adding some 'minor' changes to your work before the deadline?
Here is your chance to measure your capabilities, to compare yourselves to other programming teams!
All you have to do to compete for the prize is to form a team and enter the contest!
Applications will be accepted from groups of three participants from any country. The competition is open for everybody and free of charge, there is no registration fee! In the first, qualifying round of the contest (Electronic Contest) teams have to solve problems announced on the Internet. The 30 best teams (inculding the top 3 teams from last year) will be invited to Budapest, Hungary, where they will have to complete a single but very complex task in 24 hours. Participants use their own computers without any restrictions to operating system, development tools or programming platform. You can use any printed material, anything you ever imagined, except communication equipment: internet, mobile phones, etc.
The total amount of the awards is more than 5000 EUR.
