2009 ACM Programming Contest
The 2009 ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest, Mid-Central US Region (sponsored by IBM and ACM) was held Oct 24 at the University of Illinois at Chicago. The IIT-A team, composed of graduate students Tao Ke (CS), Francesc Massanes Basi (ECE) and Jeffrey Rebacz (ECE), performed very well by solving 6 of the 9 problems and finishing 8th out of more than 130 teams. They nearly joined the two other teams who solved 7 problems, but despite 13 valiant attempts, they did not complete a variant of Chutes and Ladders that had more than a million squares. The IIT-B team, Antonio Perez De Tejada, Benjamin D Piatt, and Corey Sarsfield (all CS undergraduate students), solved three problems.
Thanks go to all the team members for participating and also to Erick Schneider of the local ACM chapter, who recruited most of the team members and served as a reserve team member. Many thanks also go to Professor Gruia Calinescu, the faculty advisor.
