IEEE DBCE SB hosts IEEEXtreme 15.0

The IEEE Student Branch of Don Bosco College of Engineering, Goa hosted the 24 hours coding competition-IEEEXtreme 15.0 from 23 October 2021(5:30 am) to 24 October 2021(5:30am), which was proctored and well organized by the IEEE Student Branch counselor Prof. Yeshudas Muttu and technically assisted by Mr. Ignatius Dias.

IEEEXtreme 15.0 is a 24-hour World-wide online coding competition where various universities and colleges, of this esteemed community, which is IEEE, go on head-to-head in a friendly yet compelling and invigorating competition. The event received 5561 registrations from teams from all around the world, of which Don Bosco College of engineering had 13 teams, with 3 members each. The objective of this event was to encourage team building through communication, and problem-solving skills. The participants were challenged with a new problem statement every hour with 25 problem statements in total based on different concepts like arrays, graphs & trees, data structures, image processing with memory and run time constraints. It was also a very testing experience as the students had to sustain themselves for 24 hours as they kept tugging away which proved to be an amazing coding and social experience. The event was encouraged by the Director – Fr. Kinley D’Cruz, Principal – Dr. Neena Panandikar & HOD-Electronics & Telecommunications Engineering – Dr. Varsha Turkar with necessary support by FiiRE.

The competition ended on 24 October 2021(5:30 am) wherein, Mr. Alston Dias and Ms. Anjima Rajesh shared their experience. Prof. Yeshudas Muttu appreciated the efforts put in by the IEEE student members & motivated them to be a part of IEEE to grab more opportunities.
