Passwords have been sent to the team coaches so contestants can log
back into their accounts and continue solving BOSPRE 2008 problems
for the fun of it, with the autojudge judging.
Judge's input, solutions, and output are available to contestants
on the BOSPRE 2008
private web page: a password has been sent to the team coaches.
Plaques for the winners who are going to regionals will be sent to
these winning teams by the end of January.
The proposed plaques
can be viewed here.
Tufts Halligan Hall Host Site for BOSPRE 2008
Practice facilities will be available throughout the school year.
See here.
BOSPRE 2008 was a cooperative effort between Brown University
and Tufts, who hosted the teams, and Harvard,
who provided judging and
problems using the net. Since Harvard provided the judging,
in order to avoid the appearance of conflict of interest,
Harvard did not attend BOSPRE 2008 (it went to WNEC).
We plan for BOSPRE to be held every year, with Harvard providing
judging and computer support, and other schools hosting teams.
A host site needs labs
that can handle 6 or more teams (18 seats plus 6 terminals).
To see what is involved look
here.
If you have further questions or want to serve as host for 2008,
contact walton@deas.harvard.edu or the people at RIT.
