Algorithmic engineering and complexity analysis of protocols for consensus. Opinions, rankings, observations, votes, gene sequences, sensor-networks in security systems or climate models. Massive datasets and the ability to share information at unprecedented speeds, makes finding the most central representative, the Consensus Problem, extremely complex. This research delivers new insights and new, efficient algorithms.
Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficie ....Approximate proximity for applications in data mining and visualization. Data Mining, pattern recognition and visualization of relational information are all important data analysis techniques in which it is essential to determine which data points are in the vicinity of others. The huge size of the data sets involved and the need for real-time interaction preclude the use of conventional methods for the precise computation of the proximity information required. This project will develop efficient algorithms and data structures for gathering high-quality approximations of the full proximity information, and will use these innovations as the basis for new, practical tools for visualization, and clustering in data mining.Read moreRead less

Australia is faced with the challenge of engendering trust in, and protecting, the information systems vital to the economic and social development of the nation. This initiative will produce a national direction for research, development and educational activities in information security with particular emphasis on the protection of the national interest. It will do so by bringing together for the first time, academic, government and business people from a vast array of backgrounds, and whose interests lie across a spectrum of commercial, legal, policy and research outcomes.Read moreRead less
Taming the uncertainty in trajectory data. This project aims to develop effective and efficient methods to manage large scale uncertain trajectory data. It provides individuals, business, government and social groups the ability to explore significant uncertain trajectories and their patterns, for important usages in location based services, logistic, transportation and tourism.

Test bed for wide-area software defined networking research: This project aims to develop a wide-area test bed, spanning ten organisations, for conducting research and experimentation in the emerging disruptive technology of Software Defined Networking (SDN). SDN is likely to bring long-term transformation to the networking industry, much like cloud computing did, by enabling dynamic virtualised elastic network services under software control. The test bed will empower Australian researchers in network technologies and dependent applications (for example, multimedia and security) to collaboratively develop and demonstrate novel ideas at scale. This is expected to benefit Australia by giving our researchers international recognition in this nascent area, and developing a national talent pool for local industry.Read moreRead less

better market operation and management following recent devastating blackouts in North America, UK and Italy. This project aims at investigating major mechanisms of market simulation techniques including impacts from load diversity and approaches to defining appropriate new generation entry into the market. From the outcome of this project the National Electricity Market will be able to manage the uncertainties of load diversity (one of the most common blackout causes), and efficiently minimise risk associated with decisions on new generation entry to enhance electricity supply infrastructure.
