Summary
Real-time Very Long Baseline Interferometry. We will develop a range of software products that are required to implement real-time very long baseline interferometry with the Australia long baseline array. These developments build upon substancial recent infrastructure investments and will place Australia at the forefront of this field. They will enhance our capacity to participate in international collaborations in a range of sciences including astrophysics, spacecraft tracking and geodetic mo ....Real-time Very Long Baseline Interferometry.

Summary
Grid-enabled fusion of global data and local knowledge – applying the INWA Grid to eResearch links with China. This project extends a model of eResearch that has been demonstrated between the UK and Australia in a collaboration between the UK National eScience Centre and Curtin University that modelled consumer behaviour in telecommunications and financial services markets using Grid technologies. The INWA (Innovation Node – Western Australia) Grid was extended to the Chinese Academy of Sciences ....Grid-enabled fusion of global data and local knowledge – applying the INWA Grid to eResearch links with China. This project extends a model of eResearch that has been demonstrated between the UK and Australia in a collaboration between the UK National eScience Centre and Curtin University that modelled consumer behaviour in telecommunications and financial services markets using Grid technologies. The INWA (Innovation Node – Western Australia) Grid was extended to the Chinese Academy of Sciences in January 2005 and now offers the potential for applying these techniques to emerging markets within China. Modelling and understanding these dynamics within the most rapidly developing economy in the world provides a number of valuable outputs but will also allow a Grid support for collaborative eResearch across three continents to be tested and developed.Read moreRead less

Summary
The ARC Cleaner Energy and Hydrogen Research Network. The importance of clean energy is well recognised, and it is important to recognise, leverage and exploit Australian needs in the context of world progress in the area. The first task of the initiative will be to identify and focus research in the knowledge of existing trends. The Network will bring together Australia's finest research groups to provide an Australian focus on cleaner energy and hydrogen research, participate in major internat ....The ARC Cleaner Energy and Hydrogen Research Network. The importance of clean energy is well recognised, and it is important to recognise, leverage and exploit Australian needs in the context of world progress in the area. The first task of the initiative will be to identify and focus research in the knowledge of existing trends. The Network will bring together Australia's finest research groups to provide an Australian focus on cleaner energy and hydrogen research, participate in major international programs, and provide a framework for relevant researchers to interact. It will develop an advisory role for Government and industry on technological options for sustainable energy development.Read moreRead less
