About Conference
Global Academic Research Institute (GARI), organized the international conference on Engineering and
Technology (ICET) in March 2015. Following the success of this event, post – conference evaluation
conducted by the GARI decided to repeat this conference periodically. The main goal of ICET is to
provide an opportunity for academicians and professionals from various Engineering and Technology
related fields from all over the world to come together and learn from each other. An additional goal of
the conference is to provide a place for academicians and professionals with cross-disciplinary interests
related to Engineering and Technology to meet and interact with members inside and outside their own
particular disciplines
Engineering is the application of mathematics, empirical evidence and scientific, economic, social, and
practical knowledge in order to invent, innovate, design, build, maintain, research, and improve
structures, machines, tools, systems, components, materials, processes and organizations. The discipline
of engineering is extremely broad, and encompasses a range of more specialized fields of engineering,
each with a more specific emphasis on particular areas of applied science, technology and types of
application.
Technology is the collection of techniques, skills, methods and processes used in the production of
goods or services or in the accomplishment of objectives, such as scientific investigation. Technology can
be the knowledge of techniques, processes, etc. or it can be embedded in machines, computers, devices
and factories, which can be operated by individuals without detailed knowledge of the workings of such
things.
Our past conferences had been successful in attracting over 25 participants and the next conference will
be hosted on 02 nd December 2016 in Colombo.
The key note participation of 2015 was Prof. Dr. Dimiter Velev (University of National and World
Economy), Dr. Shihab A.Hameed (Electrical; Computer Engineering Dept., IIUM University).
