Tools and models for measuring and predicting growth in internet addressing and routing complexity. We analyse patterns in the allocation and actual use of Internet Protocol version 4 (IPv4) addresses to predict the technical and market pressures for deployment of IPv6. The utilisation models will help evaluate the potential for emerging markets in scarce IPv4 address prefixes to increase costs to the end-users of Australia's future national broadband network.
Optical wireless frontier: Design challenges of multi gigabit wireless. This project aims to improve the coverage, mobile access, miniaturisation, bandwidth and networking of optical wireless.

This project aims to improve the coverage, mobile access, miniaturisation, bandwidth and networking of optical wireless. As connected machines become the primary consumers of the Internet, technologies for wirelessly connecting devices, processors, storage and display devices at very high speeds become necessary for mission critical services and applications. Gigabit wireless access needs to overcome shortages in the radio-frequency spectrum and provide scalable bandwidth and wider coverage. Optical wireless transmission is a real alternative to current wireless systems because its connection speed of tens of gigabits/second means it can work efficiently with wired optical networking technologies. This project is expected to lead to optical wireless technology.Read moreRead less
Large-scale highly dynamic wireless networks: architecture and communication strategies design. This project will develop novel techniques for the modelling, design and management of highly dynamic networks, with wireless vehicular networks for autonomous vehicles being a typical but not sole example. Social and economical benefits are expected in the areas of road traffic management and road safety, communication and environment protection.
Coordinated non-coherent wireless for safe and secure networking. Distributed wireless networks have the potential to serve simultaneous users streaming high-definition video, no dead zones, no interference among users and no reduction in data rate as more users are added. This project will provide a solution to the current limitations of distributed wireless networks aiming at user safety and privacy.
