Submission + - 12th Internet Problem Solving Contest
misof writes: Roughly one thousand teams for all around the globe have already
registered for
IPSC 2010, which takes place on
Sunday,
June 6th.
USD 3000 in prize money (courtesy of Facebook, Inc.) is waiting
for the best few of them.
Participation is free and the contest is open for everybody.
IPSC is what you could call "a programming contest with a twist". Over the years, the problems always push the boundary and go beyond the usual stuff you see in a programming contest.
For example, in past few years the contestants had to understand how arithmetics in computers differs from the one in mathematics, produce a sequence of cache requests that generates many page faults, solve a logic puzzle given as a flash game, or recognize images to evaluate a rock-paper-scissors game.
