Its creation has been inspired by programming contests, such as the SBC Programming Marathon, which is a South American regional selective of the International Collegiate Programming Contest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The main purpose of the contest is to spread intellectual enhancements on SQL programming through a high-level competition, involving correct resolution and performance gain of the proposed solution. Undergraduate students of Computer Science, Computer Engineering, Information Systems, Software Engineering, Mathematics, Statistics, Digital Media and other courses of related areas may participate in the Marathon. The contest promotes students&#8217; creativity, teamwork, search for a variety of SQL constructs, and the ability to solve problems under pressure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each competition team should be composed of three (3) members, undergraduate students of the same institution. Each team may use just one computer and has to solve up to 10 problems during 2 hours. Competition teams can also bring printed hard copy material (e.g. papers, books, manuals).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Only code in the SQL syntax for the PostgreSQL database will be\naccepted. URI Online Judge will be used as a judge to evaluate the competitor&#8217;s\nqueries. Team competitors should collaborate to discover the easiest queries.\nSome queries require only SQL understanding, while others need knowledge of\nmore sophisticated techniques. The team that can solve the most problems (in\nthe shortest time, in case of a tie) is declared the winner. The top three\nteams will be awarded medals and certificates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>REGISTRATIONS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Participation in the marathon is an exclusivity of the students enrolled\nin SBBD 2019.
