BANDUNG, itb.ac.id - Tim Dogskar Pedongi re-carve his achievements by competing in the "2013 ACM International Collegiate Programming Contest (ACM-ICPC) World Finals" (30-04/06-07/13) in Saint Petersburg, Russia. A team of Irvan Jahja (Computer Science 2009), Christianto Handojo (Computer Science 2010), and Ahmad Zaky (Computer Science 2012) and accompanied by lecturers School of Electrical Engineering and Informatics (STEI), Fazat Nur Azizah and Inggriani Liem. Last year, the first time represented ITB in "2012 ACM-ICPC World Finals" in Warsawa, Poland.
This computer programming contest in the world's oldest university is the largest computer programming contest and most prestigious in the world. 2013 ACM-ICPC World Finals is under the supervision of the Association of Computing Machinery (ACM), also testing the creativity, teamwork, and innovation in building software, as well as the ability to work under pressure. For this year, the 2013 ACM-ICPC World Finals held at the National Research University of Information Technology, Mechanics and Optics (ITMO) as the host.
Previously, the finalists were selected by more than 300 regional contest held in 2012. It has been followed by 29.479 contestants from 2,322 universities in 91 countries. In October 2012, Tim Dogskar Pedongi qualifed for selection through ACM-ICPC regional contest held in Jakarta.
the final which took place on Wednesday (03/07/13) at the Jubilee Main Arena, Saint Petersburg, Russia, requires all teams to complete 11 questions programming within five hours. Subsequently, the whole team will be ranked based on the number of questions completed and the time required. From a total of 120 finalists, the ranking of one to four got the gold medal, rank five to eight got the silver medals, and rank nine to thirteen got the bronze medals.
Overall champion (rank 1) achieved by the home team with a National Research University ITMO completing ten questions and leaving only one question that was not successfully completed by any team. Pedongi Dogskar team able to complete six questions and was ranked fourteenth with twelve other universities who also completed the six questions, including Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) and Stanford University. If the rank order based on the time required to solve problems, ITB is at rank 23, still under the MIT (ranked 18), but above Stanford University (ranked 26).
ITB can be said to be the most superior of all the universities in Southeast Asia, such as the National University of Singapore (rank 49 to finish 4 questions). In the past year, the ITB was ranked 36 with another university to complete the four questions and the overall ranking of 56 out of 112 participants. At last year's ITB also received an award as one of the first solver.
In addition to approaching the medal rankings, keep in mind that the level of competition and the difficulty in programming contests is quite high. It is enough to prove that the ITB can compete in the world competition level computer programming which is actually dominated by participants from Russia, Eastern Europe, China, Japan, and the United States. In the upcoming years, hopefully STEI ITB can obtain better performance.
