Darach Cawley and Alan Davy presented an exhibition about Smart Devices and Services.

Organised by the Communications Systems, Software and Networks (CSSN) in association with TecNet, this annual conference is now a well-established event and has become a major highlight in the telecommunications sector, attracting delegates both from Ireland and abroad. TecNet is a Technology Network serving Institutes of Technology and Irish Industry.

The CSSN is a network comprising of researchers from all 13 member institutes involved in the broad area of telecommunications and ICT research. It was set up in co-operation with TecNet in November 2000.

The first IT&T conference established an era of collaboration between third-level institutions and industry. Each year the all-island conference provides key opportunities for researchers to meet peers and build up contacts within industry and other third-level Institutes.
