except other members of the same team. Input in any form fromanyone other than student team members is strictly forbidden. This includesemail, telephone contact, and personal conversation, communication via web chator other

3. Partialsolutions are acceptable. There is no passing or failing cut-off score, andnumerical scores will not be assigned. The MCM/ICM contest judges are primarilyinterested in the team’s approach and methods.
3.部分解决方案是可接受的。大赛不存在通过或是不通过的分数分界点，也不会有一个数字形式的分数。
MCM /ICM的评判主要是依据参赛队的解决方法和步骤。
4. SummarySheet: The summary is an essential part ofyour MCM/ICM paper. The judges place considerable weight on the summary, andwinning papers are often distinguished from other papers based on the qualityof the summary.
To write a good summary, imagine that a reader willchoose whether to read the body of the paper based on your summary: Yourconcise presentation in the summary should inspire a reader to learn about thedetails of your work. Thus, a summary should clearly describe your approach tothe problem and, most prominently, your most
importantconclusions. Summaries that are mere restatements of the contestproblem, or are a cut-and-paste boilerplate from the Introduction are generallyconsidered to be weak.
4.摘要
摘要是 MCM 参赛论文的一个非常重要的部分。在评卷过程中，摘要占据了相当大的比重，以至于有的时
候获奖论文之所以能在众多论文中脱颖而出是因为其高质量的摘要。
好的摘要可以使读者通过摘要就能判断自己是否要通读论文的正文部分。如此一来，摘要就必须清楚的描述解决问题的方法，显著的表达论文中最重要的结论。摘要应该能够激发出读者阅读论文详细内容的兴趣。那些简单重复比赛题目和复制粘贴引言中的样板文件的摘要一般将被认为是没有竞争力的。
Besides the summary sheet as described each paper shouldcontain the following sections: 除了摘要页以外每篇论文还需要包括以下的一些部分： l Restatement and clarification of
theproblem: State in your own words what youare going to do.
再次重述或者概括问题——用你自己的话重述你将要解决的问题。
l Explain assumptions and
rationale/justification: Emphasize the
assumptions thatbear on the problem. Clearly list all variables used in your model.
对于基本原理以及证明的假设——着重陈述在解决问题中提出的假设，清晰的列出所有在模型中应用到的变量。
l Include your model design and
justification for type model used ordeveloped. 对于已经用过的或者应用到的模型的构建与证明。 l Describe model testing and
sensitivityanalysis,including error analysis, etc. 模型的测试与灵敏度分析，包括误差分析等。 l Discuss the strengths and weaknesses of your model or approach.
关于模型或求解方法的优缺点讨论
5. The judgeswill evaluate the quality of your writing in the Solution Paper:
· Concisenessand organization are extremely important.
· Keystatements should present major ideas and results.
· Present aclarification or restatement of the problem, as appropriate.
· Present aclear exposition of all variables, assumptions, and hypotheses.
