How to run a programming competition: conference workshop

Michael David Black · Journal of computing sciences in colleges · 2011

In addition to the well-known ACM ICPC Programming Competition, many small student programming competitions are held each year at schools and conferences. This workshop teaches participants how to set up and manage a programming competition. Participants will learn how to install and administer the PC2 programming competition management software, and will construct a miniature sample competition on their own computers. Tips will be given on designing test problems, setting up a site, obtaining volunteers and resources, and running a hassle-free competition.
