Go MESTeferians, go!

A group of us are thinking of joining the IEEE International Services Computing Contest (SCContest 2006) contest. This looks like it could be lots of fun. Jim and I can act as the industry advisors (poor customers! :-). Aad is the team’s academic lead and he’s putting a team of post-graduate students together in Newcastle. However, we are interested in making the team international and encourage collaboration. We want to make the participation in this contest fun and encourage the communication/exchange of ideas. The goal is to apply the MEST ideas in solving whatever problem they throw at us (famous last words 🙂

So, if you are an academic who can put a team of students together (a small team of BSc/MSc/PhD students) or you are a student and want to participate, then drop me a line.
