Modelling, Measurement and Control of the Internet. The demands made of modern high-speed data networks, such as those that make up the Internet, are increasing rapidly in terms of both the quantity and quality of service required.
So that these demands can be satisfied, it is necessary that network operators, or even the network itself, take measurements and make control decisions. Depending on the service, there is a need to do this over very short timescales (fractions of a second), or lon ....Modelling, Measurement and Control of the Internet. The demands made of modern high-speed data networks, such as those that make up the Internet, are increasing rapidly in terms of both the quantity and quality of service required.
So that these demands can be satisfied, it is necessary that network operators, or even the network itself, take measurements and make control decisions. Depending on the service, there is a need to do this over very short timescales (fractions of a second), or longer
timescales (minutes or even weeks).
By developing innovative mathematical models of network behaviour,
this project will deliver improved methods for measurement and
control of the Internet.Read moreRead less
A Green Internet - telecommunications technologies and their environmental impact. This project will solve problems of direct importance to Australia and the wider international community. It will enable continued growth of broadband Internet services in Australia and elsewhere, while minimizing the environmental impact of this growth. The project will significantly advance Australia's participation in Information and Communications industries through an increase in the knowledge and skills ba ....A Green Internet - telecommunications technologies and their environmental impact. This project will solve problems of direct importance to Australia and the wider international community. It will enable continued growth of broadband Internet services in Australia and elsewhere, while minimizing the environmental impact of this growth. The project will significantly advance Australia's participation in Information and Communications industries through an increase in the knowledge and skills base in telecommunications technologies and their environmental impact. The outcomes of the research will be in technologies that are well-matched to the needs and interests of Australian companies. Read moreRead less
Towards an all-optical Internet. The Federation Fellowship will build on the applicant's established and highly successful research program into key technologies for the all-optical Internet. Unlike the current Internet, which relies heavily on electronics for switching and routing, the all-optical Internet will use optics for these functions. The all-optical Internet will enable a vast increase in network capacity and will revolutionize telecommunications. The research program wil produce impor ....Towards an all-optical Internet. The Federation Fellowship will build on the applicant's established and highly successful research program into key technologies for the all-optical Internet. Unlike the current Internet, which relies heavily on electronics for switching and routing, the all-optical Internet will use optics for these functions. The all-optical Internet will enable a vast increase in network capacity and will revolutionize telecommunications. The research program wil produce importatnt innovations and will advance the Australian knowledge base in optical comunications and photonics. The research will assist Asutralia to capitalize on this new technology and to become a significant player in the next phase of the information revolution.Read moreRead less
