ARC Research Network in Multimedia Technology and Applications (MTA). Multimedia Information Technology is becoming a major stream for modern computers, networks, and new platforms (e.g. embedded-systems, mobile-phones, PDAs, digital-TV) in various applications, including media production and e-healthcare where Australia has tremendous strengths. This proposal aims to bring top researchers in the related areas, including IT, Healthcare, Architecture and Visual-arts, to push a new technological w ....ARC Research Network in Multimedia Technology and Applications (MTA). Multimedia Information Technology is becoming a major stream for modern computers, networks, and new platforms (e.g. embedded-systems, mobile-phones, PDAs, digital-TV) in various applications, including media production and e-healthcare where Australia has tremendous strengths. This proposal aims to bring top researchers in the related areas, including IT, Healthcare, Architecture and Visual-arts, to push a new technological wave in Australia, to provide its value promised to Australian business, and to take international leadership in multimedia computing. Its outcome includes the formation of research teams, coordinated by a board, for 10 programs, and a CSCW-system & related website to facilitate the group work.Read moreRead less

. Technology has the potential to transform the means for scholarly collaboration and communication. Our proposal will achieve this potential, by deploying open source infrastructures to create new communication platforms. The Initiative will itself use collaborative writing systems to construct and energise the Network, which will match researchers requiring these new technologies with those who have the skills to build them. The outcomes will be an increase in the efficiency of traditional research collaborations as well as new kinds of collaboration and communication, for researchers and consumers of research across a range of disciplines.Read moreRead less
