Selected Team List (Public) This Document provides the selected team list for ICPC Dhaka Regional 2020. THIS IS A TENTATIVE LIST. Currently, the hosts plan to accommodate all these teams in the contest. If, due to the demand of the extreme situation, the capacity is revised, then an updated list will be published. This year is extraordinary, and we appreciate your patience and support in organizing this event. The document includes: 1. Report on the mistake of problem C 2. Report on the plagiarism charges 3. Updated rank-list 4. Selected team list Mistake on Problem C of ICPC Dhaka Regional 2020 Online Preliminary Contest A mistake was found in the judge data of Problem C (Almost a Palindrome) after the contest was over. Unfortunately, the mistake potentially harmed teams who approached it in the correct way. Thus, teams might have had a better rank than the one they achieved during the contest. The Issue The core algorithm to solve the problem was correct in the setter’s, tester’s and two alternate writers’ solutions. But they all missed a corner case. The problem requires the smallest index in case of multiple possible answers and in this case, judges’ solution may produce an index which is not the smallest. Handling this corner case requires a little addition after finding the answer with the core algorithm. Without handling this case, for some input the judges’ output was flawed. So, this mistake doesn’t affect the efficiency of the judges’ solution rather the correctness in this case. The Resolve from Judges Judges did the following steps to resolve the issue. 1. We have created the correct output files based on the correct algorithm. Input files were unchanged. 2. We rejudged all the submissions which got “Wrong Answer” as a verdict during the contest. 3. We marked all the submissions which had a changed verdict after the rejudge. 4. The submissions which were accepted after the rejudge were used to update the rank-list. 5. The submissions which got “Time Limit Exceeded” after the rejudge were marked as “Significantly Affected”. Judges Proposition The judges had a meeting on 9th April, 2021 (Friday) and they collectively decided that the teams with “Significantly Affected” verdict in problem C might have suffered during the contest due the mistake. The judges propose to resolve this by the following: ● Assume “Significantly Affected” submissions were accepted. ● Calculate rank-list based on that assumption. ● Calculating the list of selected teams for ICPC Dhaka Regional 2020 based on that rank-list. Note 1. We did not change any input file. The teams didn’t have the chance to update their submissions after the contest is over, so modifying/adding new input is unfair to teams. 2. As the input files were unchanged, no submission other than “Wrong Answer” verdict were rejudged. Because, only the “Wrong Answer” verdict depends on the output files. Any other verdict depends on the input only. 3. Teams which got “Time Limit Exceeded” (TLE) after the rejudge were assumed potentially harmed because if they got the TLE during the contest they would have the opportunity to potentially optimize and improve their solution. The entire judging team is disappointed that this mistake occurred. They acknowledge with full responsibility that the mistake is a grave one and apologizes to all the teams for their suffering. Plagiarism in Submissions Two teams from University of Global Village were found to have plagiarised each other's submission for problem E. These two teams are: ● UGV_CodeBurners ● UGV-404 The incident was detected by the automatic plagiarism checker of Codemarshal. It was then manually verified by the Judges. Both teams were disqualified. Updated Ranklist Based on the issues mentioned above, the rank-list of the contest was modified slightly. We are attaching the previous and updated version of the rank-list for the top 20 teams, as major changes were limited to this range.

  • Paper 3-Waqf and Madrasah Education
    The Role of Cash Waqf in The Development of Islamic Higher Education in Bangladesh M. Azizul Huq1 & Foyasal Khan2 Abstract Bangladesh is the third largest Muslim nations by population where madrasah (religious institutions) is still the main provider of Islamic higher education. The history madrasah education dated back to the thirteen century when Bengal was conquered by Muslim. From that time, Madrasah education was largely funded by waqf and it was absolutely free. The residential madrasahs provided free boarding and lodging for the students and the teachers. Since the British occupation, however, the madrasah education system has been neglected and both number of people donating waqf land and number of waqf properties have been declining remarkably. Thus, Islamic higher education is in the crisis of patronization. As an overpopulated nation, the scope of land waqf is limited in Bangladesh. In this case, cash waqf is the suitable alternative for the country. This paper, hence, aims to evaluate the role of cash waqf in the development of Islamic higher education in Bangladesh. 1. INTRODUCTION The traditional perception of Muslim intellectuals and Muslim governments was that 'Islamic Education' means 'merely theological teaching or the teaching of the Qur'an, Hadith and Fiqh. This tendency of limiting the scope of 'Islamic education' was changed to a great extent when the First World Conference on Muslim Education was held in the Holy City of Makkah in 1977 where Muslim scholars redefined 'Islamic education' as 'teaching all branches

    World Journal of Social Sciences Vol. 8. No. 2. June 2018.

Abdur Rashid** Quality education is considered as the prime focus of each of the higher educational institution engaged in training and development of students as human resources. Towards this journey, the well trained and developed graduates represent as power and the faculty members who mentor them act as the amplifier of this power. Here, the role of faculties is very significant because their active, sincere and excellent performance can bring positive and qualitative change in the academia. This results in groomed leadership of graduates in the national development endeavors. But such dream can never be cherished unless the respective faculty members perform with their utmost capacities, commitment and contribution. To ensure due diligence of the faculty members, the practice of their performance evaluation is prioritized in the educational institutions. From this perspective the current study is a motivational attempt to identify the influencing factors of faculty evaluation which have positive impact on the quality education of the higher educational institutions in Bangladesh through a structured questionnaire based on primary survey during the month of November 10, 2017 to December 09, 2017.
