Thoughts on my experiences with technology

My Expo Poster Won an Award

In November this year my honours course required that I develop a poster presentation. A poster presentation is basically an A1 sized poster that you stand in front of while people wander around the expo. It is a great opportunity for the school to promote the research and projects that have been undertaken over the course of the year by the students.

In the morning members of the school are invited to attend and check out what we’ve been doing. Some are assigned individual students and they must assess their posters. At the same time a group of industry representatives is also working their way through the expo evaluating a number of projects for awards.

My poster, and presentation, was selected for the “Most Outstanding Software Engineering Project 2011″. On Christmas Eve the award arrived in the mail, which was a very pleasant surprise.

The poster is available as a PDF via my bytechxplorer.com site and my honours thesis is also available.

Many thanks to my supervisors for providing feedback on my poster and for giving me the opportunity to work on the Serval Project.
