Dynamic resource provisioning for autonomic management of cloud computing environments. In the next 20 years, service-oriented computing will play an important role in shaping the industry and will require cloud infrastructure hosting applications to deliver services at low cost. This project will develop technologies for self-managed cloud computing platforms that reduce usage and operational costs, thus transforming the Australian economy.
Easing urban congestion through intelligent use of distributed information. Vehicle-to-vehicle wireless communication can be a solution to road traffic congestion and control without enormous additional infrastructure costs. This project will investigate the fundamental properties of such solution and to devise the practical policies and protocols resulting in interacting game-like behaviours.
