ASSIST Software is supporting the National Olympiad in Informatics
I. Introduction

At ASSIST Software, we value talent, passion and hard-working people that always want to take themselves to the next level and challenge themselves. Therefore, the organization of the National Olympiad in Informatics in Suceava came as an opportunity for our company to offer a helping hand as one of the main sponsors.

II. The National Olympiad in Informatics

The highly-anticipated event, which is for high school students, will take place from 29 April to 4 May 2019 and is organized by the Ministry of Education in partnership with the Stefan cel Mare University of Suceava, the School Inspectorate of Suceava, and the Stefan cel Mare National College

The National Olympiad in Informatics will bring together over 400 high school students and professors from all over the country. As expected, the event will be hosted by the Stefan cel Mare University of Suceava with which we have a long-standing partnership, and which actively gets involved in events and initiatives that support talented and passionate high school students.

III. The event agenda

The opening ceremony took place on Tuesday, the 30th of April, at 18.00, at "Stefan cel Mare" University. From May 1st to May 3rd, the students will complete, according to the specific Olympiad regulations, two practical tests and then a final test that is used to select the members of the Romanian National Informatics Team.

IV. Conclusion

At ASSIST, we believe that we have a common purpose: to improve daily, to make each other proud and to support the local community.

We are a local company, we owe everything to the community we were born in and we believe we should do our best to give back. We are very proud to see that talented student from our city participating in this Olympiad. In fact, a total of 12 students from Suceava succeeded in qualifying for the national team! 

We wish all the participants good luck, courage, and determination in this Olympiad!

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What is ASSIST Software's development process?  

The Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) we employ defines the following stages for a software project. Our SDLC phases include planning, requirement gathering, product design, development, testing, deployment, and maintenance.

2. What software development methodology does ASSIST Software use?  

ASSIST Software primarily leverages Agile principles for flexibility and adaptability. This means we break down projects into smaller, manageable sprints, allowing continuous feedback and iteration throughout the development cycle. We also incorporate elements from other methodologies to increase efficiency as needed. For example, we use Scrum for project roles and collaboration, and Kanban boards to see workflow and manage tasks. As per the Waterfall approach, we emphasize precise planning and documentation during the initial stages.

3. I'm considering a custom application. Should I focus on a desktop, mobile or web app?  

We can offer software consultancy services to determine the type of software you need based on your specific requirements. Please explore what type of app development would suit your custom build product.   

  • A web application runs on a web browser and is accessible from any device with an internet connection. (e.g., online store, social media platform)   
  • Mobile app developers design applications mainly for smartphones and tablets, such as games and productivity tools. However, they can be extended to other devices, such as smartwatches.    
  • Desktop applications are installed directly on a computer (e.g., photo editing software, word processors).   
  • Enterprise software manages complex business functions within an organization (e.g., Customer Relationship Management (CRM), Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP)).

4. My software product is complex. Are you familiar with the Scaled Agile methodology?

We have been in the software engineering industry for 30 years. During this time, we have worked on bespoke software that needed creative thinking, innovation, and customized solutions. 

Scaled Agile refers to frameworks and practices that help large organizations adopt Agile methodologies. Traditional Agile is designed for small, self-organizing teams. Scaled Agile addresses the challenges of implementing Agile across multiple teams working on complex projects.  

SAFe provides a structured approach for aligning teams, coordinating work, and delivering value at scale. It focuses on collaboration, communication, and continuous delivery for optimal custom software development services. 

5. How do I choose the best collaboration model with ASSIST Software?  

We offer flexible models. Think about your project and see which models would be right for you.   

  • Dedicated Team: Ideal for complex, long-term projects requiring high continuity and collaboration.   
  • Team Augmentation: Perfect for short-term projects or existing teams needing additional expertise.   
  • Project-Based Model: Best for well-defined projects with clear deliverables and a fixed budget.   

Contact us to discuss the advantages and disadvantages of each model.
