Information-theoretic secure communications via caching. This project aims to address the cybersecurity problem of securing telecommunication networks to prevent data leakage. Current widely-adopted data-encryption approaches to secure communications will be broken with large-scale quantum computers, and existing information-theoretic approaches rely on the channel quality of the network. To circumvent these risks, this project proposes a new information security approach using information cache ....Information-theoretic secure communications via caching. This project aims to address the cybersecurity problem of securing telecommunication networks to prevent data leakage. Current widely-adopted data-encryption approaches to secure communications will be broken with large-scale quantum computers, and existing information-theoretic approaches rely on the channel quality of the network. To circumvent these risks, this project proposes a new information security approach using information cached at devices to camouflage data. The project will future-proof secure communication systems against large-scale quantum computers, which threaten current encryption approaches. This should ensure that data transmitted over communication networks can never be revealed to interceptors or hackers, even in public WiFi.Read moreRead less
Public Wi-Fi as Urban Infrastructure - the Australian Case. This research positions publicly provided Wi-Fi as a type of urban and civic infrastructure and asks whether there is a sound case for public investment in public Wi-Fi by local governments. Australia lags behind much of the world in providing public wireless internet access, but a surge of investment is closing the gap. This field-based research aims to appraise rationales for public Wi-Fi provision by examining the social, economic an ....Public Wi-Fi as Urban Infrastructure - the Australian Case. This research positions publicly provided Wi-Fi as a type of urban and civic infrastructure and asks whether there is a sound case for public investment in public Wi-Fi by local governments. Australia lags behind much of the world in providing public wireless internet access, but a surge of investment is closing the gap. This field-based research aims to appraise rationales for public Wi-Fi provision by examining the social, economic and civic impacts of network use. This project aims to fill major empirical and knowledge gaps about investment rationales, uses, and impacts of public Wi-Fi networks, and inform development of urban and communications policies.Read moreRead less
Moving media: mobile internet and new policy modes. Moving Media' is a comprehensive study of Australian mobile internet, how the infrastructures are evolving, how people use these convergent technologies, and how traditional and new modes of media policy respond. The project will advance our understanding of this vital area of future media, providing evidence to inform better policy and regulation.

Extremely-high-speed and reliable coding for next generation communications. This project aims to develop fundamental coding theories and innovative coded-modulation techniques for the next generation backbone communication systems. The development of these techniques is expected to lead to dramatic increases of spectrum efficiency, data rate and reliability of communication systems. The techniques will enable extremely high speed and extremely reliable front-haul/back-haul communications, which ....Extremely-high-speed and reliable coding for next generation communications. This project aims to develop fundamental coding theories and innovative coded-modulation techniques for the next generation backbone communication systems. The development of these techniques is expected to lead to dramatic increases of spectrum efficiency, data rate and reliability of communication systems. The techniques will enable extremely high speed and extremely reliable front-haul/back-haul communications, which constitute the major building blocks of critical information and communications technology infrastructures for future digital society. This project is expected to support the sustainable development of the emerging digital society and new data-intensive applications, which are crucial for the long term economic growth for the Australian community.Read moreRead less
Learning the Focus of Attention to Detect Distributed Coordinated Attacks. Cyber security analysts need to detect and respond to attacks as soon as possible, to minimise the damage attackers can inflict. However, the growth in highly distributed attacks that span multiple networks has meant that massive volumes of data need to be analysed. While machine learning techniques can help filter the data, we need techniques that can automatically provide a focus of attention for analysts on the most re ....Learning the Focus of Attention to Detect Distributed Coordinated Attacks. Cyber security analysts need to detect and respond to attacks as soon as possible, to minimise the damage attackers can inflict. However, the growth in highly distributed attacks that span multiple networks has meant that massive volumes of data need to be analysed. While machine learning techniques can help filter the data, we need techniques that can automatically provide a focus of attention for analysts on the most relevant observations. Our aim is to devise a novel suite of attention mechanisms that can focus the search of machine learning techniques for cyber security. The results of this project will improve the accuracy and efficiency of detecting distributed attacks across multiple networks.Read moreRead less
Exploiting dynamic information in mobile networks. Mobile and wireless networks are ideal for Australia as they provide both low set-up costs and environmentally robust infrastructures. Exploiting mobility to enhance efficiency and cost will place Australia at the forefront of research in mobile networking and will contribute to the worldwide effort towards sustainability and survivability.
Local computations in dynamic networks. This project aims to identify and exploit dynamic networks, and investigate how locally available knowledge affects the computability or the communication complexity of solving a problem. Mobile, wireless, social and other ubiquitous communication networks involve autonomous and highly dynamic entities, but these are often treated as a liability instead of an asset, even when they enhance the network. Local knowledge in the entities’ neighbourhood can make ....Local computations in dynamic networks.
