The IOI 2023 Host Scientific Committee (HSC) is pleased to invite the IOI community
to participate in the design of the IOI 2023 competition tasks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IOI tasks are typically focused on the design of efficient, correct algorithms.
Input and output are to be kept as simple as possible.
The IOI needs both simple and hard tasks that are creative,
so if some of your designed tasks seem easy but creative please submit them too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The competition tasks from previous IOIs can provide, by example,
good guidance on the desired composition of tasks:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
However, the nature of previous tasks should not constrain the design of new tasks;
the submission of novel task types not yet seen in IOIs are encouraged.
We are particularly interested in tasks whose basic rules (if not optimal strategy)
are accessible to a wide audience, and tasks that illustrate algorithms and
computational problems that arise in a variety of human endeavours.
Open-ended tasks, ones that do not necessarily have a known efficient or optimal solution,
are welcome.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We are also particularly interested in tasks that go beyond the typical format
in which a program collects input, performs some computation, and returns output.
Examples include \u201creactive\u201d and \u201coutput only\u201d tasks which have been used occasionally
in previous IOIs. Tasks with some measure of solution effectiveness
other than CPU time consumption are encouraged.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A syllabus listing the material generally considered acceptable for IOI tasks To ensure a fair and interesting competition for all, tasks should satisfy the following conditions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n For further reading, the ISC procedures and policies<\/a> A task submission must contain:<\/p>\n\n\n\n It is also strongly recommended to contain:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Any comments related to the task are also welcome and would be highly appreciated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Submitted tasks must be kept in strict confidence until the end of IOI 2023. Task materials must be placed together in a single file (use .zip or .tgz for multiple files) Please note that by submitting the task, the author asserts that he or she is authorised to grant, Task authors and their collaborators must not use a submitted task, or a variant thereof, Receipt of submissions will be confirmed via the provided contact address. The authors of the tasks selected for the short-list will be invited to attend the The authors of all submitted tasks will receive feedbacks from the ISC.

but may be asked to have them considered for IOI 2024, in which case strict confidence
would have to be maintained through until IOI 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nSubmission Process<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

In case of doubt, contact the ISC. Note that we do not wish to forbid
authors of submitted tasks to be involved in other competitions and training,
but we do ask them to take all necessary precautions to safeguard confidentiality.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nWhat Happens Next<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
The Scientific Committee will carefully review all submissions and will select a
short-list of around 10 tasks, six of which will eventually be given at the IOI 2023 competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
IOI 2023 in Hungary as Invited Guests (authors will be responsible for their travel,
but IOI 2023 will cover their stay). However, they will not be informed prior to the competition
as to whether their tasks will be used at the actual contest, or whether the
Scientific Committee has substantially modified their tasks.
In case the task authors are ineligible to be invited or the task authors reject the invitation,
they will be awarded IOI 2023 souvenirs (including, but not limited to T-shirts) by mail.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The authors of tasks included in the actual competition will also be recognised by listing
their name, affiliation and country on the official IOI website
(unless they specifically decline this). The problems of tasks included in the actual competition
will be made available under a Creative Commons Attribution license (CC-BY)<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\nSummary<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
