Summary
Free access legal research infrastructure for the whole of the common law: Completing CommonLII. All legal researchers in Australia, and any other common law jurisdictions, need access to case law from the whole of the common law world for their research to be complete. Australian society benefits from better academic and professional research on common law issues. CommonLII's database coverage of the whole common law world, and its free access citator tracking the interconnections between cases ....Free access legal research infrastructure for the whole of the common law: Completing CommonLII. All legal researchers in Australia, and any other common law jurisdictions, need access to case law from the whole of the common law world for their research to be complete. Australian society benefits from better academic and professional research on common law issues. CommonLII's database coverage of the whole common law world, and its free access citator tracking the interconnections between cases will transform the common law research capacities of all legal researchers. CommonLII will also provide Australian leadership in development of legal information systems in the Commonwealth and the common law world.Read moreRead less
Investigating identity fraud control, management and policy: Australia in a global context. Identity fraud is recognised as a serious and significant problem in Australia by Government and industry, with estimates of losses ranging up to $4 billion per annum. This project aims to research identity fraud from an organisational and social perspective by investigating control, management and policy alternatives. Outcomes will include conceptual, effects and costing models of identity fraud, succe ....Investigating identity fraud control, management and policy: Australia in a global context. Identity fraud is recognised as a serious and significant problem in Australia by Government and industry, with estimates of losses ranging up to $4 billion per annum. This project aims to research identity fraud from an organisational and social perspective by investigating control, management and policy alternatives. Outcomes will include conceptual, effects and costing models of identity fraud, successful strategies for organisational management control, new techniques to improve prevention and detection, and comparative evaluations of social, legal and privacy implications. The research program will provide the missing research partnership that will inform control, management and policy decisions of national significance.Read moreRead less
Aboriginal remote narrowcast TV and the audio-visual archive. This project aims to investigate the world’s best practices in community narrowcast digital TV and contemporary methods for the long-term storage of both digital and analogue audio-visual cultural materials. This will assist in the long-term preservation of Indigenous languages and culture and will investigate whether health promotion and other messages in Aboriginal languages community impacts on community well-being.
Development of computer-based decision support tools using population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic models. Diabetes is an epidemic that presents an enormous burden to health systems of both developed and developing nations. Australia spends an estimated $35 billion on the condition annually, with costs set to rise with increasing diagnosis rates. Additionally, the burden of diabetes is more prominent in indigenous Australians. We intend to improve management of this disease in non-indigenous ....Development of computer-based decision support tools using population pharmacokinetic/pharmacodynamic models. Diabetes is an epidemic that presents an enormous burden to health systems of both developed and developing nations. Australia spends an estimated $35 billion on the condition annually, with costs set to rise with increasing diagnosis rates. Additionally, the burden of diabetes is more prominent in indigenous Australians. We intend to improve management of this disease in non-indigenous and indigenous Australians by development of a user-friendly computer-based decision support tool for doctors. Once established, this tool will have applications in other fields of health care where support is needed to make informed dosing decisions for critical medications and have the potential to reduce financial and social impacts of chronic disease.Read moreRead less
Data-driven Traffic Analytics for Incident Analysis and Management. Traffic incidents are among the primary concerns of all transport authorities around the world due to their significant impact in terms of traffic congestion and delay, air and noise pollution, and management cost. This project aims to address incident analysis and management in complex and multi-modal traffic networks by combining multidisciplinary research efforts from transportation engineering and data science. The intended ....Data-driven Traffic Analytics for Incident Analysis and Management. Traffic incidents are among the primary concerns of all transport authorities around the world due to their significant impact in terms of traffic congestion and delay, air and noise pollution, and management cost. This project aims to address incident analysis and management in complex and multi-modal traffic networks by combining multidisciplinary research efforts from transportation engineering and data science. The intended outcomes will be an innovative incident analysis and management framework synergising traffic data analytics and traffic simulation modelling as well as its key enabling techniques and prototype systems. This will significantly help mitigate incident impacts on daily commuters.Read moreRead less
Cognitive Features of Decision Support System Interfaces. The complex and time-constrained nature of the contemporary workplace is such that there is an increasing dependence on technology to assist operators in formulating accurate and timely decisions. This project is designed to ensure that the process through which this information is presented to operators is as efficient and effective as possible under the circumstances. Using an innovative approach to the development of such decision supp ....Cognitive Features of Decision Support System Interfaces. The complex and time-constrained nature of the contemporary workplace is such that there is an increasing dependence on technology to assist operators in formulating accurate and timely decisions. This project is designed to ensure that the process through which this information is presented to operators is as efficient and effective as possible under the circumstances. Using an innovative approach to the development of such decision support systems, the outcomes of this project will direct the development of this type of technology in the future and, ultimately, lead to more effective and more efficient decision-making under uncertainty.Read moreRead less
Productivity and work-life balance in technology-enabled virtual work environments. This project examines the impact of technology-enabled virtual work environments on the productivity and work-life balance of professional knowledge workers. Guidelines will be developed that improve organisational and individual outcomes for professional knowledge workers who use technology extensively in their interactions with others.
Building An Indigenist Health Humanities Collective. This proposal aims to develop Indigenist Health Humanities as a new and innovative field of inquiry, building an intellectual collective capable of bridging the knowledge gap that hinders current efforts to close the gap in Indigenous health inequality.

This proposal aims to develop Indigenist Health Humanities as a new and innovative field of inquiry, building an intellectual collective capable of bridging the knowledge gap that hinders current efforts to close the gap in Indigenous health inequality. Bringing together health and the humanities through the particularity of Indigenous scholarship, a deeper understanding of the human experience of health will be developed alongside a greater understanding of the enablers to building a transdisciplinary collective of Indigenous health researchers. The potential benefits include a more sustainable, relational and ethical approach to advancing new knowledge, advancing research careers and advancing health outcomes for Indigenous people.
