Param and TechTatva 2009
anomit | September 4, 2009TechTatva is the technical fest held at my college and this year it starts from 8th September, that is a few days from now. No use of rambling on about its greatness and the value it brings to an otherwise morbid campus life.
Param is the category under TechTatva broadly relating to the computer science and IT oriented events. I’m in charge of handling it this time. Since last year, we have been trying to infuse some freshness into this category with the help of new events. Last year it was Mobivision which was about application development on two mobile platforms: Android and Symbian S60. The event was a huge hit in the college with 200+ people turning up for the workshops on PyS60 and Android development.
This time we have introduced an algorithm intensive event, Algosm which will be hosted and evaluated online by Codechef. This is the first time such an event will be a part of Param like Mobivision was last year. We hope this will help a lot of students in our college get acquainted with the overall concept of online programming contests.
Outstation participants are also welcome (obviously because it’s an online event 
. Do check out the Algosm page on the TechTatva website for more details.

Manish SInha | September 4, 2009Introducing new events is a great move! One event every year can give this category a boost from the otherwise dullness which prevailed earlier.
When I was in 1st year all we had in Param was Coding, Coding and Quizzes. Only solution, no algo nothin.
