CUHK Programming Team Won the ACM ICPC Asian Regional Contest 2010

We have sent 5 teams to participate in the Asian regional contests. It is our great pleasure that the team 1 “ManiAC” has advanced to the world finals 2010. ManiAC did very well in both Jakarta Site and Kuala Lumpur site. They solved 9 problems and ranked 3rd in Jakarta site. Then they solved all 10 problems in 4 hours and became champion in Kuala Lumpur site, which is the first time for us to win Asian regional contest in 10 years! Congratulate to the team members of ManiAC: Ng Yue Hei (CS Y4), Hung Chun Ho (CS PG2), Li Cheuk Ting (MIE Y3).

And Team 2 “IsolatE” is also outstanding in regional site. They solved 9 problems and ranked 6 in Jakarta site, and then solved 7 problems in Kaohsiung Taiwan. Team 2 is really impressive, especially considering that the team is very young. They are our hope in the future!
