Tuymaada International Olympiad Insights
TUYMAADA INTERNATIONAL OLYMPIAD IN INFORMATICS
Dr. Natalya Nikolaeva, Cand. Sc. in Physics and Mathematics, Informatics Jury Chair
I would like to name some of
the participants of Tuymaada Inter-
national Olympiad in informatics
who have achieved high results in
programming.
First of all, it is Artyom Vasiliev,
graduate of Yakutsk School No. 23,
who won Tuymaada Olympiad in
2010. When he was a student of the
Department of Mechanics and Optics,
ITMO University, Saint Petersburg, he
was accepted into the first team of the University (that was
not an easy task because best students from different Russian
regions study there). In 2014, as member of ITMO University
Team, he became a prize-winner (bronze medal) of the ACM
International Collegiate Programming Contest (ACM ICPC).
In 2015, he won that competition. From the Internet, we
learned that he won the 2nd place at the Google Hash Code
team programming competition in 2017 while a member
of the Past Glory Team. At present, Artyom is a second-year
post-graduate student and a tutor at the Department of
Computer Technology, Faculty of Information Technologies
- Sakha National Team participant in 2000-2003
(informatics);
- 2003 winner;
- Things I remember are the trips to the Lena Pillars
Nature Park and talking with students from different
countries. I also remember with great affection my
teachers Dr. Nikifor Pavlov and Ivan Alekseev;
- Now, I am director-general of The First Social and
Financial Holding, LLC. I am married;
42
and Programming, ITMO University. And what is even better,
he is a task designer for Tuymaada Olympiad and a member
of its jury.
I'm also very proud that Ilya Zban from Vladivostok gained
much of his experience in olympiad participation at Tuymaada
Olympiad. While in school, Ilya had successfully participated in
the Olympiad twice. He was awarded a second-degree diploma
in 2011 and a first-degree diploma in 2012. Also, as part of
ITMO University Team, Ilya won the ACM ICPC in 2017.
The most important thing is that they both continue to train
school students, support the talents of the new generation,
and work as teachers of a prestigious Summer Computer
Science School. They also design tasks for Codeforces Russian
programming training website. In the previous academic year,
Artyom had distant training courses for the best students of
our Republic.
I am also very grateful to Romanian participants, who kindly
expressed their wish to work with us as tasks designers and
members of the jury. They are Costin-Andrei Oncescu, the 2015-
2016 winner of Tuymaada Olympiad, and Alexandru Petrescu,
the 2016-2017 prize-winner. Hopefully, we will be able to make
their wish come true.
- Thanks to Tuymaada Olympiads I learned to reach
my goals and to think logically;
- I would like to feel the taste of the first victory
again;
-
- I wish Tuymaada Olympiad more participants from
different countries. It is great that the Olympiad is held
every year and a new generation has the opportunity
to take part in it.
