UVic Engineering Students Awarded at BCNET/CANARIE Conference

Five UVic Electrical and Computer Engineering students, Bo Li, Yi Dong, Xudong Liu, Yangke Xiao and Zhicheng Huang, are the third-place winners of the 2010 BCNET Broadband Innovation Challenge competition, for their project "Software Defined Radio: Extend Communication Range of Walkie-Talkie" from the ELEC 499 Design Project course.

The team was invited to attend the 2010 BCNET/CANARIE Conference in Vancouver last week and give an award presentation on May 5, 2010. In addition to the presentation, which was broadcast over the Internet, the team also received a trophy and a $1,000 cash award.

The annual Broadband Innovation Challenge competition, organized by BCNET and sponsored by industry, looks for student projects from BC universities that utilize the broadband Internet. The projects are judged based on their innovation and novelty, technical difficulty, bandwidth efficiency, the potential to encourage collaboration and for commercial or community use, and the project presentation.

Other three UVic students, Robert Kelly, Aidin Faghfouri and Ryan Hamilton from Computer Science, are the finalists of this year's competition and each of them received $500 honorable mentions.
