NC State ICPC Mid-Atlantic Regional Contest Site

All events for the NCSU site will be in Lampe Hall, the building formerly named Daniels Hall. Lampe Hall is on main campus, not Centennial Campus, where most of the engineering building are.

Equipment
For the contest, we will be using desktop computers in two labs. Teams should not need to bring any of their own equipment for the contest. These labs normally seat 30 to 40 students. We’ll be putting each teem on a row of desks that normally seats three or four students, so each team should have plenty of space. There will be other desktop machines, but only the center machine will be used for the contest. The keybords and mice for the other machines on the row can be moved to the edge of the desk, to provide more space for working.
These computers will be running the standard contest image for our site. The main mid-atlantic web page has some information about languages and development tools available on this image.
Network Access
NCSU has a guest network named ncsu-guest. The eduroam network is also available.
Parking
You should be able to park in most faculty spaces on the weekend, and I expect there will be a lot of spaces available near Lampe Hall when teams start arriving for the contest. There are a few spaces where parking rules are enforced over the weekend, so you may want to check for a sign with the parking rules as you pull into a lot.
The figure below shows some of the facutly spaces (in red) near Lampe hall. The Yarbrough Lot south of Lampe is being used for construction. If you have trouble finding a space, the large Jeter Drive lot to the south or the Boney Drive lot to the south-east should have plenty of spaces. From either of these, it will be less than a five minute walk to Lampe.
