CTIT Symposium, June 1st 2010
On June 1st, CTIT organized its annual symposium. This year’s theme was “Dependable ICT – who cares?” It was considered a great success.
A system is dependable, if we can justifiably rely on its services. A dependable system should be robust against unavoidable physical faults, for instance a jammed communication channel. Also, a dependable system should resist human error, be it during operation or at design time, for instance software errors. Dependable ICT systems should even defend themselves against malicious attacks by intrusion or abuse.
We had five excellent speakers that present their own view on this topic: Ank Bijleveld-Schouten (State secretary of the Ministry of the Interior and Kingdom Relations), Kim Larsen (Aalborg University), Boudewijn Haverkort (Embedded Systems Institute/University of Twente), Andrew Tanenbaum (VU University Amsterdam) and Jacek Skowronek (Thales Nederland).
Part of the symposium program was the AIO Carrousel during which 8 PhD students gave a short presentation about their research activities.
The PhD student poster competition which complements the CTIT annual symposium has been organized six times already, so it can be safely called an “invention of tradition”.
Kim Larsen of the Aalborg University and Jacek Skowronek of Thales Netherlands were kind enough to be members of the jury, chaired by Prof.dr.ir. Gerard Smit of the University of Twente.
The jury based its verdict on the criteria published for the competition i.e. clarity, novelty, attractiveness and appreciation of related work.

The jury would like to thank all students who have spent countless hours creating their posters and wishes them well in the pursuit of their research. The jury believes that the attention students have received from the delegates to the symposium was both well deserved and appreciated by the students.
The organizing committee would like to thank all participants for there presence at this inspiring symposium!
