Ultimately, this should also help more school students learn mathematics well and so play a part in addressing Australia's skill shortage. Also, the work on optimization algorithms promises to improve the performance and quality of many practical signal reconstruction methods. These are used by varied Australian industries from telecommunication to mining and by researchers in the digital arts and fields such as astronomy, physics, chemistry, bioscience, geoscience, engineering and medicine.Read moreRead less

Summary
Dependable Distributed Enterprises and Services. Distributed systems (clusters, grids, peer-to-peer) are the mainstay of many new applications. This has the potential of providing consumers with much more timely, accurate, and comprehensive information on which to base major decisions in financial, medical, and other areas. As with any new technology, related applications should be designed and implemented in such a way that users can depend on the application's availability and results, which i ....Dependable Distributed Enterprises and Services. Distributed systems (clusters, grids, peer-to-peer) are the mainstay of many new applications. This has the potential of providing consumers with much more timely, accurate, and comprehensive information on which to base major decisions in financial, medical, and other areas. As with any new technology, related applications should be designed and implemented in such a way that users can depend on the application's availability and results, which is the main focus of this network. The CIs will collaborate in several ways, ranging from basic research to applications, to enable the creation and maintenance of highly dependable computer systems and networked applications.

Efficient and Effective Interactive Visualization of Large Graphical Information Spaces. The expected outcome will change ways of interacting with and thinking about information processing for all information systems. As Australian companies became larger and more global, the ability to view and analyse the growing amount of company information becomes crucial to aspects as varied as trouble shooting or new ventures and eventually to the very viability of the organization itself. The expected ou ....Efficient and Effective Interactive Visualization of Large Graphical Information Spaces. The expected outcome will change ways of interacting with and thinking about information processing for all information systems. As Australian companies became larger and more global, the ability to view and analyse the growing amount of company information becomes crucial to aspects as varied as trouble shooting or new ventures and eventually to the very viability of the organization itself. The expected outcome will enhance this ability by providing an optimised global view and an effective navigation scheme of large graphical information spaces. This will attract leading international IT companies to use it for developing cutting-age tools, and will enhance significantly the capacity and international standing of Australian IT industry.Read moreRead less
Algorithms for Memory Management and Memory Design in Embedded Systems. Given the importance of embedded systems technology, Australia must secure a place among significant innovators in the field of embedded systems design. Our research aims at novel algorithmic solutions for customization and resource management for embedded processors.

Given the importance of embedded systems technology, Australia must secure a place among significant innovators in the field of embedded systems design. Our research aims at novel algorithmic solutions for customization and resource management for embedded processors. Thus, besides generating intellectual property, our research can be fully commercialized in Australia, because it does not require complex and expensive technologies and other resources available only to the world's largest corporations. In addition, during our research a number of undergraduate and graduate students will get a chance to get training in the cutting edge embedded systems design, optimization and testing.Read moreRead less

Pervasive Grids with Autonomic Capabilities. A grid computing system that brings together a multitude of heterogonous resources able should be able to function continuously without much intervention by a human operator. This work aims at developing techniques and tools for the monitoring and prediction of the behaviour of the core structure of a grid. In this case, the ?core? structure is a large- or a wide-area network, or a collection of such networks. The monitoring process will feed into the ....Pervasive Grids with Autonomic Capabilities. A grid computing system that brings together a multitude of heterogonous resources able should be able to function continuously without much intervention by a human operator. This work aims at developing techniques and tools for the monitoring and prediction of the behaviour of the core structure of a grid. In this case, the ?core? structure is a large- or a wide-area network, or a collection of such networks. The monitoring process will feed into the other layers in the grid fabric important information (traffic, current and possible future congestions, failures, topological variations, etc) to enable the efficient and consistent operation of the grid. This is an important research problem in grid computing
since traditional assumptions that are more or less valid in conventional high-performance computing settings break down on the Grid.Read moreRead less
