Schaffhausen Institute of Technology in partnership with Acronis provides Singapore Workshop participants with the unique offer - financial support of their Master studies in exchange for a three-year employment agreement. After graduation sponsored students can choose between pursuing a PhD degree at SIT in Switzerland, or an R&D position at Acronis (a leading technology company in cyber protection; the position may be in Singapore, Bulgaria, or the United States). This is an exciting opportunity to transfer cutting-edge technologies from the mind or the laboratory to the marketplace by working on development of new products.

The scholarship program covers full tuition, travel, housing, and a monthly stipend for up to 15 students preselected by SIT faculty and accepted to several master’s degree programs at the NUS School of Computing or Carnegie Mellon University. The program includes a summer internship in Switzerland. All nationalities are welcome to apply. To participate in the program student should send their CV and university transcript to admission@sit.org with the topic: Discover Singapore 2019 by Moscow Workshops ICPC.
Moscow Institute of Physics and Technology is one of the leading Russian universities in physics and technology. MIPT students are participating in all programming workshops and improve their results at ICPC competition thanks to the financial support of MIPT Endowment Fund.

The testing will be run on computers based on Linux.

To compile programs written in C/C++ on Linux-based laptops you will need a compiler compatible with gcc 4.9 (or higher), on the server will be used gcc 8.2 with c++17 support; Geany, Code::Blocks or CLion of the latest version are recommended as IDE. Similar or newer versions of compilers are recommended for Mac users as well.

For Windows it is recommended to use Code::Blocks (if possible, choose the distribution kit with a compiler included), CLion and Geany; using Visual Studio is recommended starting from Visual Studio 2013 (although for full compatibility it's better to have Code::Blocks and a gcc port).

To compile and debug programs written in Java it is recommended to use the latest version of Oracle JDK for Java 1.8. As IDE you can use Eclipse and IntelliJ IDEA.

For Python can be used PyCharm and standard Python2 and Python3 compilers. Note that libraries like NumPy are not included at the contest environment. For Kotlin can be used InetiilJ IDEA. Warning: Kotlin and Python are provided "as is" and we do not guarantee that any presented problem can be solved using those languages.
