The Championship is jointly organized by Huawei and the International Collegiate Programming Contest (ICPC).
It brings together top programmers from around the world to discuss solutions to real-world industry problems, as well as key technology trends and future challenges.
This year's event was attended by more than 90 coaches and contestants from 35 countries and regions.
After five hours of intense competition, Japan's Hirotaka Yoneda won the Championship.
Nine other contestants from China, Armenia, Poland and other countries shared second and third prizes.
At the opening ceremony, Zhou Hong, President of Huawei's Institute of Strategic Research, said:
"We will enter an intelligent world within the next 20 to 30 years.
This is bringing about unprecedented opportunities, but also creating huge challenges that can only be solved through the joint efforts of bright minds from around the world.
Huawei is committed to sharing real-world challenges currently and our hypotheses for the future, opening up our platforms, and working alongside academic and industrial experts and talent, in order to promote major breakthroughs in theoretical research of fundamental science, push the boundaries of application technology, and contribute to a prosperous world."
The Championship is part of Huawei's ongoing commitment to opening up research platforms in the device, computing, and connectivity fields.
It provides next-generation problem-solvers an opportunity to showcase their talent. Since 2019, Huawei and ICPC jointly organized the ICPC Challenge, which has grown into a major event in the world of programming.
In 2023, the first ICPC Challenge Championship powered by Huawei was held.
The event is mostly for winners of previous ICPC Challenges as well as outstanding contestants from ICPC regional contests and world finals, providing a networking and competitive platform for top programming talent.
During the Championship competition, contestants had five hours to program a solution to the problem of optimal photo-story matching, which is closely linked to our daily lives.
The Championship tested not only contestants' programming and optimization skills, but also their modeling capabilities and innovative thinking.
During the Championship, a range of side activities were organized for participants.
For instance, problem designers and contestants from previous competitions shared their experiences.
At sessions called Tech Talks, senior Huawei technology leaders shared their insights into technology trends and challenges faced by industries, while encouraging young talent to hone their creativity and potential.
Presenters included Huawei Fellow Chen Haibo; Chief Scientist of Huawei Consumer BG, Tian Qi; Media Algorithm Scientist of Huawei HiSilicon, Michael Bi Mi; and Director of Huawei Consumer BG Software Engineering Human Resource Dept., You Jin.
Huawei will continue supporting top international competitions.
By designing problems and facilitating technical exchanges, Huawei will help coaches and contestants explore the latest industrial knowledge and challenges, encourage more talented people to engage in innovation, and drive the flow of knowledge and skills worldwide.
Ultimately, this will promote global technology and industry development and improve social well-being.
