Abstract:
Dublin City University is well known for its strong relationship with industry and this annual display provides an opportunity for the industrial and business community to see the standard and range of development work carried out by the students.

These projects are completed in the application area of the students' choice, with ideas coming from various sources including INTRA placement, other external companies, research interests of staff, and of course original ideas from the students themselves.Each individual or team brings the project from analysis and design, through the development process and finally to testing and documentation. This takes a huge amount of time, work and dedication on the part of the students.

The computer industry is growing at a phenomenal speed, especially in this country, and the Final Year Projects reflect this, utilising the most up-to-minute technology that is available. Indeed, many of the projects displayed represent products with commercial potential.
