CEOI 2003

This page contains some of the photos that I took at the Central European Olympiad in Informatics (CEOI) 2003 in Münster (Germany). Unfortunately, I could not take photos of most events because I was a member of the scientific committee and had to work on the tasks, the network and the computers most of the time. Thus I made only one or two photos between the welcome day and the second excursion day. Eleven of the 110 photos (those with the substring "db" in their name) were taken by Dominic Battré.

Hooray, the Slovenian team just arrived! The fun factor of the CEOI instantly doubled.

What is in these Lufthansa Systems bags?

Special prizes to the guests of honour are awarded due to the CEOI 10 years anniversary.

The guides...thank you!

More guests of honour...this time, local organizers.

Even the scientific committee got some prizes...cool!

Special prize: a home made RJ45 <-> serial port cable! This is probably one of the coolest and most geeky anecdotes in the CEOI history.

Gold Medals: Poland (as usual) and Croatia (for the first time, hooray and very special congratulations! I am so happy for you!).

The winner: Bartosz Walczak from Poland, with a perfect score!

The Lamberti Church, in the evening.

One of the buildings in the background has a design that is common in Münster and which is also realized in the city hall. This architecture inspired the Münster / CEOI 2003 logo.

Also note the metal cages in which some early baptists were presented as deterrence and bird food after having been tortured to death, in 1535.

The Münster cathedral.

By the way...Münster is situated in Westphalia!
