Industries require secure information accessing and communication. This project continues development of new delegation frameworks and information assurance requirements in Internet-based collaborative environments. The frameworks will be systematically upon policy-based models to set up a reliable, secure information sharing and communication medium. We also aim to develop techniques for setting up secure group communication and providing accesses to group members for many database systems. The approach leads to a great understanding of advocating selective information sharing in role-based systems. The project develops fundamental enabling methodologies for the information and communication industry.Read moreRead less

Enterprises are deeply concerned about customers' privacy issues and try to build solid trust to attract customers. This project continues development of new purpose-based frameworks and private information assurance requirements in relational database systems. The frameworks will identify and address issues of protecting private information; and to specify and enforce privacy rules to support identified issues. It aims to develop techniques for purpose-based usage control and detecting possible conflicts between obligations. The approach leads to a great understanding of advocating limited disclosure in usage control systems. The project develops fundamental enabling methodologies for the information and communication industry.Read moreRead less

The impact of data quality has acquired new heights in the current climate of global information systems, triggering the attention of researchers and software vendors. However, some fundamental questions are neglected in current solutions, allowing us to avail an opportunity to promote Australia's capability in developing cutting edge technologies that have the capacity to make dramatic impact on success of technology solutions. Focus on exploring the limitations and providing a grounded understanding of data quality management has potential to significantly add to Australia's research profile. The project will also provide a conducive environment for students to gain high quality research experience. Read moreRead less

Infrastructure for large-scale data resource sharing between research institutions – an environmental case study. The project creates a federated distributed data infrastructure for research, that encourages data creators to make their data available to other scientists, and encourages users to make use of data available from many sources. The vision is to establish an ICT infrastructure to facilitate a whole-of-environment approach to environmental research. The outcome is a proof-of-concept ....Infrastructure for large-scale data resource sharing between research institutions – an environmental case study. The project creates a federated distributed data infrastructure for research, that encourages data creators to make their data available to other scientists, and encourages users to make use of data available from many sources. The vision is to establish an ICT infrastructure to facilitate a whole-of-environment approach to environmental research. The outcome is a proof-of-concept application based upon a case study of Queensland Environmental Protection Agency’s databases, to gain an in-depth understanding of the complexity, scope and key technological barriers for establishing an ICT infrastructure, to identify where the latest technologies can be used and where the gaps are for these technologies to be used in environmental sciences.Read moreRead less

EII targets consolidated research towards the comprehensive development & establishment of advanced information infrastructures. Its prime purpose is to provide a forum for intellectual exchange by diverse yet complementary research groups, to address the fundamental research problems faced by scientific & business communities when dealing with deployment of information technology to globally distributed, and data intensive environments. EII will address 3 tightly coupled research themes: Ability to interoperate across existing heterogenous platforms & applications; Efficient processing of very large data sets; Technology adoption & impact. Generic results will be applicable to e-science and large business information systems installations.Read moreRead less
Multi-resolution spatial query processing. The cost of spatial query processing is directly related to spatial data complexity and accuracy. While spatial data is often stored in a database with the highest level of detail available, not all applications require the same level of detail. Recognising the difficulties of multiple representations of spatial data, in this project we propose to use multi-resolution data structures as a new foundation for efficient, application-dependent, on-demand de ....Multi-resolution spatial query processing. The cost of spatial query processing is directly related to spatial data complexity and accuracy. While spatial data is often stored in a database with the highest level of detail available, not all applications require the same level of detail. Recognising the difficulties of multiple representations of spatial data, in this project we propose to use multi-resolution data structures as a new foundation for efficient, application-dependent, on-demand derivation of data at different resolution levels. The systematic approach adopted in this project has the potential to deliver performance improvement that previous algorithm-level-only research cannot match.Read moreRead less

With the high-speed and large volume of data generation, the data mining research community is facing an unprecedented challenge to provide instant data mining outcomes for prompt usage. Getting access to derived information from multiple, dynamically changing data is vital for many business, science and security services. Extended networks of sensors and other devices assist many environments with data collection that should be correlated and processed towards discovery of dependencies, regularities and patterns. Data mining tools, especially of this new generation, are capable of dealing with data streams, and they offer great benefits for users from many industry sectors; defence, health management, security, commerce and science.Read moreRead less
