This Hub aims to grow and accelerate Australian digital manufacturing (DM) transformation by devising novel DM technology and commercialisation/adoption pathways. The Hub expects to transform industry by developing novel AI and IoT-powered DM technology that provides for dramatic improvement in manufacturing productivity, resilience and competitiveness. Expected outcomes include novel DM technology for digitally representing, predicting, and improving production and its outcomes via an open platform that supports reusing industry co-created DM solutions. Through supporting advanced manufacturing priorities and Industry 4.0, the Hub should provide significant benefits by increasing Australian manufacturing productivity and resilience by 30%.Read moreRead less
Secure and Efficient Cryptographic Hashing.

Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficie ....Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficient algorithms and data structures for gathering high-quality approximations of the full proximity information, and will use these innovations as the basis for new, practical tools for visualization, and clustering in data mining.Read moreRead less
Tractable topological computing: Escaping the hardness trap. Computational topology is a young and energetic field that uses computers to solve complex geometric problems driven by pure mathematics, and with diverse applications in biology, signal processing and data mining. A major barrier is that many of these problems are thought to be fundamentally and intractably hard. This project aims to defy such barriers for typical real-world inputs by fusing geometric techniques with technologies from ....Tractable topological computing: Escaping the hardness trap. Computational topology is a young and energetic field that uses computers to solve complex geometric problems driven by pure mathematics, and with diverse applications in biology, signal processing and data mining. A major barrier is that many of these problems are thought to be fundamentally and intractably hard. This project aims to defy such barriers for typical real-world inputs by fusing geometric techniques with technologies from the field of parameterised complexity, creating powerful, practical solutions for these problems. It is expected to shed much-needed light on the vast and puzzling gap between theory and practice, and give researchers fast new software tools for large-scale experimentation and cutting-edge computer proofs.Read moreRead less
Algorithmic engineering and complexity analysis of protocols for consensus. Opinions, rankings, observations, votes, gene sequences, sensor-networks in security systems or climate models. Massive datasets and the ability to share information at unprecedented speeds, makes finding the most central representative, the Consensus Problem, extremely complex. This research delivers new insights and new, efficient algorithms.
