Technex is a celebrated techno-management fest of IIT BHU. Under Byte the Bits, various computer science-related events are organized at IIT BHU.

In Technex’s 2023 edition, these events were:

  • Hack It Out-  Hack it out is a theme-based web/app development hackathon that has two rounds. The first round is an elementary round and involves prototype development, the finals are held on campus. The participants can use any tech stack.
  • International Coding Marathon- International Coding Marathon is the flagship programming event of Technex. It puts to test your problem-solving skills in a competition against thousands of participants from across the globe.
  • Game Jam- This is a game development competition. The participants need to use their creativity and game development skills to create an exciting game that has unique mechanics. The game has to be based around a theme and the time allotted is 7 days. Participants can use any game engine or framework.
  • CTF- An international online CTF which is open to all hackers where they can showcase their skills in different areas of computing and solve real-life cyber security challenges to get to the top of the leaderboard. To retrieve a hidden flag, you must have a deep knowledge of cyber security and hacking.
  • MLWare- The participants use their skills to solve a real-world problem or optimize a model through the utilization of advanced techniques and algorithms. You have to demonstrate an exceptional performance on a provided dataset, competing with other experts for prizes and prestige.
  •  Polyglot- The event combines elements of relay racing and solving challenging problems in multiple languages. Participants will be given tasks ranging from API calls to Filesystem-based tasks, and the most popular languages get banned in the following rounds.

These were the events for Technex 2023 under Byte the Bits, exclusively related to Computer Science.

Yes. There’s a whole category of events related to the CS viz. Byte the Bits. This category consists of the events mentioned below: 

  • International Coding Marathon: It is a contest hosted on the Codeforces platform. It is a 2 hour and 30 minutes contest with 7 problems to be solved. The scoring is done in the same style as done in ICPC. The prizes for this particular event is worth Rs.50,000. 
  • Appathon: It is a contest where the teams need to make and submit the app prototype. The Problem Statement is open before the competition itself. The prizes for this particular event are worth Rs.60,000. 
  • MLWare: This contest is based on competitive machine learning. A dataset is given and the participating teams are expected to solve that in the given 3-4 days. The prizes for this particular event are worth Rs.50,000.
  • Capture the Flag: Capture the Flag, invites hackers to show off their skills. This event gives an opportunity for the students to deal with cybersecurity problems similar to the real-world scenarios. Prize money for this event is 50,000.
