Motivation for Revision of the IOI Regulations

The Regulations of the IOI were adopted in Pravetz 1989, Minsk 1990, Athens 1991, Bonn 1992, Mendoza 1993 and Stockholm 1994. These Regulations do not sufficiently capture the intentions for the IOI preparation and execution. This may hinder the organization of future IOI's and a broadening of the scope of the IOI.

The new Regulations will be submitted for approval during IOI'95 in Eindhoven. In the last revision the Regulations have been split into: Statutes, Explications, Appendices and Organizing Rules.

The Statutes describe the general form of the IOI, the role of the various official IOI bodies, the procedures to organize an issue of the IOI, and the competition and the responsibilities of the Host.

The Explications present the motivation for the form and contents of the Regulations. They describe the motivation for the various official IOI bodies. The Appendices describe details of procedures and responsibilities where needed.

The improvements in the new Regulations are based on reports, discussions, and personal experience at previous IOI's, and a comparison with the Regulations of the International Mathematics Olympiad and the Statutes of the International Physics Olympiad, and to a lesser extent the regulations of the International Chemistry Olympiad and the International Biology Olympiad.
