TopCoder Open (TCO 2007) has been started. TopCoder Open is a set of competition, both online and on site (for the finals), held by TopCoder, open to anyone, who is at least 18 years old.
Usually, there are only two tracks in the competition, but this year there will be two additional tracks added to the competition, Marathon Match and Studio. In summary, there are 4 tracks in the competition:
- Algorithm Competition, this is the most common and the most popular tracks. Basically, you will be given some problems to be solved. This competition much or less is similar to what are International Olympiad in Informatics or ACM competition.
- Component Development, contains design and development. This is the most unique software engineering approach in the world.
- Marathon Match. Don’t have the speed that algorithm competition needs? Maybe you kind of programming the right things slowly? This is the right track for you. The problem doesn’t have exact solution and its up to you to use any kind of techniques to improve the result.
- Studio. If you’re not a programmer but have some design skill, this is the right track for you.
