Student teams will compete against each other to solve interesting and challenging programming problems. Conference and contest registration is required and the number of accepted teams may be limited, so be sure to register early. The awards for the top teams will be presented on Saturday at lunch.

Programming contest rules:

For more information about the Programming Contest see the Rules and Instructions.

Programming contest languages and editors/IDEs:

The following programming languages and editors/IDEs will be available:

  • Languages: Python 3.4, Java, C and C++ ("Minimalist GNU for Windows" compiler)
  • Editors/IDEs: Notepad++, Dr. Java, Eclipse (Java version)

Programming contest team registration:

The MICS 2015 Programming Contest has a limited capacity of 60 teams. The preregistration process suggests that we will probably have enough space for all or nearly all teams. If there is not enough space, we plan to drop all the #6 teams, then all the #5 teams, etc. until we get below 60 teams.

With that in mind, we ask that you move forward with registration:

  • signing up your students into the system (or have them do so)
  • registering teams for the contest
  • registering students for the symposium
