NWERC 2016 Results

We are back from the NWERC 2016. It was a great contest as every year. Thanks to all organizers, jury members, teams, and coaches who made that event possible.

After a trip that was much longer than expected due to some heavy traffic we participated in the practice session on Saturday. Later that day we had city tours or visited the Roman Baths and had a formidable competition dinner in the Assembly Rooms in Bath. The competition itself was on Sunday and the TUM teams finished on rank 30 (6 problems solved), 32 (6 problems solved), and 43 (5 problems solved). You can find the full scoreboard here:

Congratulations to team Omogen Heap for winning the contest and solving all the problems. Good luck for the World Finals to all teams that qualified from our regional contest.

If you want to join TUM's teams for NWERC 2017 this is the right time to start training and solving problems. We would be happy to find many new students who are interested in the ACM ICPC.
