Bytes

The world of computers is vast and fascinating. The category of bytes offers a wide range of activities that engage the participants to delve into the realm of technology and test their research skills to apply creative solutions to challenges they will face during the rounds.

Round 1

1.Participants should aim to communicate complex technical information in a clear and accessible manner, catering to both technical and non-technical audiences.

2.The use of visual aids, relevant examples, and real-world applications can enhance audience understanding.

3.This task challenges individuals to showcase their knowledge, communication skills, and ability to distill intricate IT concepts into a brief and engaging presentation.

  1. Each team will be allotted a profession and relevant problem a day prior to the round.

5.The presentation should be of 6-8 minutes and contain relevant solutions. 6.Judging Criteria:

Accuracy of content

Clarity of communication Innovation of solutions

Relevance to profession and IT/AI

Delegates cap : 2-3

Round 2

1.During this round, participants are challenged to craft a website without the use of traditional coding languages. Instead, they will rely on user-friendly website builders.

2.This approach emphasizes visual design, drag-and-drop functionalities, and pre- built templates, allowing participants to focus on creative elements such as layout, color schemes, and multimedia integration.

3.Participants will be given the topic at the start of the round.

4.Teams will only get 1 hour to create this website since there is no coding

involved.

  1. Judging Criteria: Navigation

Relativity User Friendly

Delegates cap : 2-3

Round 3

1.The third round is based on cryptography, involving a program that will be divided into several parts.

2.Each part will be unlocked using a password that will be encoded. Participants will have to decrypt each password, which will be used and to unlock a part of the program.

3.After cracking all parts of the program, they will assemble it in order. Whoever assembles the program in order first wins.

4.Gear up because we have a twist in this round. 

Participants should know the following:

Caesar Cipher

Multiple Shift Cipher

Pigpen Cipher

Morse Code

Binary to denary conversion 

Binary to hexadecimal conversion

None of these rounds are elimination rounds. Awards will be based on those who achieve max number of points.
