    RESULTS OF PROGRAMMERS' CONTEST SUMMED UP IN YEREVAN

    YEREVAN, August 10. /ARKA/. The results of the programmers' contest
    have been summed up in Yerevan. Director of the "Enterprises
    Incubator" Foundation Bagrat Yengibaryan said at the award ceremony
    that the professionalism of the participants has improved this
    year. He said that many young programmers participate in the contest
    not for the first time, and they have some experience. "It is
    surprising, but there was a stubborn struggle for the second place,
    which was not registered last year. That is why we have five teams
    ranked second this year", Yengibaryan said.

    The winners were awarded based on the individual and team rounds
    results. Vahe Musoyan, who is 16 years old, was ranked first in
    individual round (we also was the first in 2004). The sponsors
    instituted the following prizes for the 1st, 2nd and 3rd places: PDA
    (personal digital assistant), digital camera and free Internet access
    during the year (depends on the rank).

    Executive Director of the Pan-Armenian Youth Center Armen Sinanyan
    reported that the money prizes were reduced due to the number of the
    winners. He said that the team ranked 1st will receive USD 210, the
    2nd - USD 120 and the 3rd - USD 90 in AMD equivalent.

    The contest is organized by the EIF, Pan-Armenian Youth International
    Center and the Union of the IT Enterprises of Armenia (UITE). The
    contest is sponsored by Synopsys, Unicomp and CIT companies, which
    have provided additional awards for the participants.

    This is the 3rd contest of young people interested in programming. The
    first contest was held in Yerevan in 2002. A.A. -0--
