The Archipelago Challenge
The Archipelago Challenge is a problem-solving exercise focused on optimizing resource distribution and connectivity across a group of islands. Participants develop strategies to efficiently connect islands via transportation or communication networks, balancing costs, access, and sustainability. The goal is to create effective, cost-efficient linkages that ensure all islands are connected and can function together as a cohesive system. This challenge applies concepts from graph theory and network design, encouraging innovative solutions for real-world scenarios like infrastructure development, disaster response, or environmental conservation in archipelagic regions.
