Development, implementation and private and public sector adoption of Standard Business Reporting in Australia. Standard Business Reporting is a government response to the business regulatory burden and streamlines business to government reporting, but involves some cost to business in its initial uptake. This project examines the adoption decisions made and their consequences for business entities choosing to use this voluntary reporting channel.
Exposing the anonymous attacker: detecting identity crimes using real-time entity resolution on large dynamic databases. Given the increasingly large costs of identity crimes in Australia, developing improved electronic identity verification techniques is highly significant in reducing losses from such crimes, making the Australian economy more competitive, and increasing consumer confidence in Australian financial institutions.

Given the increasingly large costs of identity crimes in Australia, developing improved electronic identity verification techniques is highly significant in reducing losses from such crimes, making the Australian economy more competitive, and increasing consumer confidence in Australian financial institutions. Veda Advantage is widely used for identity verification by Australian financial service providers, so the benefits of the techniques developed in this project will automatically flow through to the Australian community. These techniques will be sufficiently generic to be of use for real-time identity verification in a broad range of applications, including e-Government portals, electronic banking, online stores, or national security systems.Read moreRead less

This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and evaluation of IoT technologies and services. The project will also serve as a vehicle for the education and training of Australia’s next generation of scholars and engineers, and contribute to Australia’s scientific visibility.Read moreRead less

The PRAXIS project aims to deliver a new era in ground-based infrared observations. The infrared night sky is a hundred times brighter than the optical night sky, which has severely limited the sensitivity at these wavelengths.

PRAXIS: beating the infrared night sky with multicore fibre Bragg gratings:
The PRAXIS project aims to deliver a new era in ground-based infrared observations. The infrared night sky is a hundred times brighter than the optical night sky, which has severely limited the sensitivity at these wavelengths. But 99 per cent of the infrared sky arises from hundreds of extremely bright, narrow emission lines due to hydroxyl in the Earth's atmosphere. PRAXIS, at the Anglo-Australian Telescope, is designed to cancel these lines using new multicore fibre Bragg gratings developed in Australia. The new fibres would render the night sky very dark and allow Australian astronomers to obtain unique observations. The sky-suppressing fibres would also allow us to develop new instrument concepts for Australia's extremely large telescope.Read moreRead less
