This event, which was attended by over 50 researchers and members of industry, highlighted the eleven projects that were funded through the Digital Technology Center’s Digital Technology Initiative program in 2004–05. The event featured poster presentations on each project and moderated panel discussions with the project investigators. Panel discussions, which were organized in general topic areas, covered project’s results, plans for the future, issues involved in interdisciplinary research, and ways of improving the Digital Technology Initiatives program.

Some of the posters presented are available. These are:
