Summary
Understanding randomness in networks. This project aims to bring the latest techniques in modelling phone and wireless networks to Australia by developing new methods and models. Increasing demands of internet data in mobile phone networks has forced researchers to adopt new mathematical approaches. One of these is stochastic geometry, a useful combination of probability and geometry, which in recent years has been used by researchers overseas to model phone and other wireless networks.

Increasing demands of internet data in mobile phone networks has forced researchers to adopt new mathematical approaches. One of these is stochastic geometry, a useful combination of probability and geometry, which in recent years has been used by researchers overseas to model phone and other wireless networks. A key point is extending the current, mostly static models, by using methods from queueing theory, resulting in dynamic network models. Another is using theoretical techniques such as large deviations theory that have seen little use in this field, and applying them to network problems. Results from the project will help implement and optimize current network technologies, as well as design future technologies.Read moreRead less
