IEEEXtreme 5.0 is scheduled for 22 October 2011. IEEEXtreme programming is a 24 hour programming competition for students across the globe. It is growing rapidly and with your help, it will become the world’s largest programming competition. As Project Lead, I am actively looking for volunteers and judges to participate.

Your contributions of time and talent to this important, high exposure event are deeply appreciated. Please see the web link below for more information. We thought you might be interested or that you would know of others who might volunteer. If so, please forward or re-post this request, thanks!

Please respond with your interest, feedback, or experiences to [email protected] by 8 July 2011.

The commitment expected from Judge:

· Create and submit two problems & solution ( at least in 1 langage) for inclusion in the competition ( Students can code in one of the following languages : C, C++, or JAVA )
· Review and test two problems submitted by other judges or validity and solution
· Spend a few hours on competition day judging the submitted problems

The benefits of participation:

· Your programming problems are tackled by thousands of IEEE student member
· Your name will be listed on the IEEE web site
· It’s fun!!! There were over 1500 students who participated in last year’s competition we expect more this year. The excitement generated by participant’s before/during/after the competition is infectious!
· This is a global on-line competition – judges can work from the comfort of their own home/work space during reasonable waking hours.

The problem difficulty in this year’s competition will consist of three levels: Easy, Medium, and Hard. Attached, please find some sample problems from previous competitions for your reference. Do not feel limited by these problems when developing your own – exercise your creativity and ingenuity.

On behalf of the 5.0 project team and Matthew Erickson, Immediate Past (4.0) Project Lead, we thank you for your consideration and support of IEEE’s student membership program and initiatives!

Best regards,

It is well known that through the last three years of establishment the IRAQ Section, the Majority of the student’s members belong to University of Babylon, especially in Computer Science Department. At the end of the first quarter of this year about 25 postgraduate students were signed for the petition of forming the Computer Society student Chapter.
The Section enhanced the students in most of the activities hold at Iraqi universities, such as:

1. For the First Time the Section celebrated the nomination of the best students in Computer Technology College.
2. Nomination of Special Track (for the last year Projects) in the First Scientific Conference Hold with Babylon University.
3. Holding many scientific workshops for students in most of Iraqi Universities..
4. Nomination of 17 Students to participate in the Students Congress hold at Texas A&M in Qatar in March 2011
5. Celebrate the Nomination of the best students in the Computer Science Institute (CSI) – Sulimanya Technical Foundation. In 8-9 May 2011

[singlepic id=1355 w=400 h=300 float=left]The Presidency of theUniversity of Babylon in cooperation with the IEEE IRAQ Section hold the Second Scientific Conference: ” The Applied Scientific Research in scientific Disciplines and it’s Role in Finding Appropriate Solution”  in the (30-31 May 2011). The Conference accept 62 papers from the total received (76) papers. The accepted papers are divided into 6 tracks:

– Academicals Women in scientific researches.. Status and Problem solutions
– Security of Communication and Information Systems
– New Communication Systems and Industrial Applications
– Problems of Electricity and Power Sectors in IRAQ
– Quality of Higher education and E-Learning
– Computer Techniques and their applications.

The Keynote speaker of the Conference was the “Cellular Communication Advisor of Minister of Communication, Dr. Eng. Hayam Alyasiri”.
