This project aims to develop adaptive resource management solutions in edge computing systems for efficient management of the use of limited computing resources and varying renewable energy resources without compromising the stringent needs of emerging Internet of Things applications. These resources will be jointly managed on the diverse, dispersed, often independently owned and operated edge devices with a set of prediction, scheduling and energy saving techniques. The expected outcome is to realise a sustainable edge computing system to reduce both operational cost and negative environmental impact of the system. This project will elevate Australia to be a dominant player in sustainable computing and lead future development trends.

This project aims to advance our knowledge of quantum computation through the lens of algorithm and complexity theory. Three core areas of the theory will be examined: interactive computing models, query complexity, and circuit lower bounds. The expected outcomes include: revealing the quantum advantages of interactive computing models; techniques for verifying quantum devices in the cloud and quantum cloud computing in general; sharpening the separation between algorithm performance in quantum and classical query models; establishing both unconditional and conditional hardness results for quantum circuits. This comprehensive understanding will enhance Australia's research portfolio in the theory of quantum computing.Read moreRead less

This Information Systems project aims to take a bold approach to finally overcome the paradoxical inertia of people who care about their privacy but do not protect it. This project integrates different psychological theories proposing a paradigm shift expecting to generate new knowledge in privacy research, which can currently neither explain nor provide means to overcome the vexing issue. Expected outcomes of the project include a privacy behaviour model (PIM), privacy training program and system design solutions. This should offer substantial benefits as it integrates privacy research and guides behavioural models beyond Information Systems, provide means to solve the paradox, guide legislation and the privacy consent mechanism design.Read moreRead less

The project aims to develop high-resolution computational models for pandemic mitigation and control, focussing on the novel coronavirus and its emerging variants, and leveraging demographic, genomic and epidemiological data. It expects to rigorously compare multi-scale effects of complex vaccination and social distancing strategies and quantify optimal responses under the COVID-19 induced uncertainty. The intended outcomes include computational models of how the most infectious viral variants emerge and spread in presence of interventions, how to predict the outbreaks, and which are the most vulnerable communities. This should make a significant economic and social impact, improving population health while maintaining a resilient economy.Read moreRead less
