ORISSA INFORMATION TECHNOLOGY OLYMPIAD

HELD ON 1ST SEPTEMBER, 2002

Orissa Information Technology Society (OITS) conducted a quiz test at senior (MCA, BE, B.Sc.(Eng) and B.Sc.(hons)) and junior (upto class XII) levels with separate questions, on 1st September, 2002. We contacted Berhampur, Puri, Sambalpur/Burla, Rourkela, Sarang, Cuttack, Raygada, Baripada and Bhubaneswar. About 1100 students registered for the same, and around one thousand students appeared. Organisationally, the contest was modelled the same way as last year. This year there was a very positive response from Rourkela, Sambalpur/Burla, Raygada and Baripada as additional venues. But the response from Berhampur decreased as many students had examinations. Professor Sudarshan Padhy, Secretary, OITS mainly coordinated this activity, with able assistance from Dr. S.K. Sahu, Sambalpur, Dr. A.K. Otta, Sc College, Rourkela, Dr. B Majhi, NIT, Rourkela, P.K. Behera, Treasurer, OITS, and, Dr. Manas Patra and V.K. Das from Berhampur. Also many others, including M.Tech. (Comp Sc) students, who were not eligible to contest, and young faculty members, came forward to help. The results at senior and junior levels are as below.
