Data Mining by Clustering in Very Large Relational Databases. Many commercial and governmental entities possess very large relational data that cannot be feasibly analyzed by today's computers, e.g., gene expression data, product usage databases and telecommunication call records. The clustering tools developed in this project will have a significant benefit on many business processes that involve clustering this type of data, such as fraud detection and market segmentation.
Long-term Cloud Service Composition. This project proposes an economic model-based framework for the selection and composition of cloud services, thus creating an efficient market for cloud consumers and providers. The project will use economic models that incorporate a range of quality of service (QoS) parameters as a key driver for optimising the selection of cloud services and the acceptance of consumer requests. The main outcomes of this project aim to increase efficiencies in the cloud mark ....Long-term Cloud Service Composition.

Dynamic Semantic Interoperability for Business Processes. The integration of independently developed applications constitutes
one of the major bottlenecks in modern software development in
business, industry, and defense, in particular for a nation such as
Australia that is highly reliant on overseas trade. Technologies that

one of the major bottlenecks in modern software development in
business, industry, and defense, in particular for a nation such as
Australia that is highly reliant on overseas trade. Technologies that
facilitate the smooth application integration promise significant
savings in software development. By offering automated support task,
this project offers the potential of significant cost savings, highly
beneficial to any industry with a major ICT component. Lessons learned
from the demonstration prototype can be directly carried over into
commercial tool development. The project strengthens links to high
quality European research laboratories.

Summary
Intelligent Applications Through The Semantic Web. The primary aim of the proposed bid is to build a network of Australian researchers and their international peers for condresearch into the fundamental as well as applied aspects of the Semantic Web. By incorporating meaning of web-content in a form that can be accessed and processed by intelligent software agents, the Semantic Web will allow computers and humans to work in cooperation. This research will address the needs of both the Australian ....Intelligent Applications Through The Semantic Web. The primary aim of the proposed bid is to build a network of Australian researchers and their international peers for condresearch into the fundamental as well as applied aspects of the Semantic Web. By incorporating meaning of web-content in a form that can be accessed and processed by intelligent software agents, the Semantic Web will allow computers and humans to work in cooperation. This research will address the needs of both the Australian government and industry that provide and make smart use of information available on the Web. It will ensure Australian preparedness for the next-generation web technology.Read moreRead less
Probabilistic modeling of human responses in complex interaction. The project aims to develop computational ability to reliably detect and hence act on implicit user preferences. It aims to develop techniques combining advanced non-intrusive sensor measures of conscious and non-conscious behaviour during interaction tasks to enable very high-level computerised support for human goal-seeking in complex data and design environments. It plans to use a user’s physiology and preference evaluation to ....Probabilistic modeling of human responses in complex interaction. The project aims to develop computational ability to reliably detect and hence act on implicit user preferences. It aims to develop techniques combining advanced non-intrusive sensor measures of conscious and non-conscious behaviour during interaction tasks to enable very high-level computerised support for human goal-seeking in complex data and design environments. It plans to use a user’s physiology and preference evaluation to capture their complex interaction with the data they view, probability models to accumulate information to identify their underlying preferences and extract relationships to find possible ‘hidden variables’ which may help explain and leverage the user's choices.Read moreRead less
Cognitive intelligent information processing and presentation in navigation. This project aims to develop a personalised navigation system to provide effective augmented-reality (AR)-based support information, built on different navigation preference and the momentary cognitive workload of the user. This will immediately encourage users to become aware of their surroundings and continuous use will facilitate the development of navigation skills. It is expected that this research will advance sci ....Cognitive intelligent information processing and presentation in navigation. This project aims to develop a personalised navigation system to provide effective augmented-reality (AR)-based support information, built on different navigation preference and the momentary cognitive workload of the user. This will immediately encourage users to become aware of their surroundings and continuous use will facilitate the development of navigation skills. It is expected that this research will advance scientific knowledge about individual differences in navigation ability. It will significantly enhance spatial learning and alleviate the apparent decline in navigational ability experienced across the life span, benefiting the aged population in Australia by enabling them to live longer independent lives.Read moreRead less
Automated Interaction Technologies for Mobile Hand-held Devices. This project is concerned with developing intelligent technologies that support human interaction through handheld devices, connected to wireless digital networks. Intelligent software assistants running on these devices will interact with one another in order to coordinate the activities of multiple users. Such automated coordination may facilitate scheduling of meetings, collaboration among different members of a team, and negoti ....Automated Interaction Technologies for Mobile Hand-held Devices. This project is concerned with developing intelligent technologies that support human interaction through handheld devices, connected to wireless digital networks. Intelligent software assistants running on these devices will interact with one another in order to coordinate the activities of multiple users. Such automated coordination may facilitate scheduling of meetings, collaboration among different members of a team, and negotiating conflicts that may arise between the activities of different connected users. This will enable context-dependent task support and coordination of workers involved in industrial applications involving mobility and dynamism.Read moreRead less
Service-oriented negotiation and coordination in multi-agent systems. Australia has a strong competitive advantage in the area of agent software. The outcomes of this project will provide an improved platform for services in application areas such as finance, e-commerce, tourism, and multi-platform media.

By integrating research through design methods with technological solutions, the project will deliver better quality of service and higher customer satisfaction.
Uncertain Information Processing for Situation Awareness and Dynamic Decision-Making in Emergency Management. The Australian national counter-terrorism committee indicates that Australia should have a strong intelligence-led prevention and preparedness to support Australia on risk management, emergency services and maintaining capabilities to manage various types of terrorist attacks. The proposed situation awareness support technique can be used to develop situation analysis software systems or ....Uncertain Information Processing for Situation Awareness and Dynamic Decision-Making in Emergency Management. The Australian national counter-terrorism committee indicates that Australia should have a strong intelligence-led prevention and preparedness to support Australia on risk management, emergency services and maintaining capabilities to manage various types of terrorist attacks. The proposed situation awareness support technique can be used to develop situation analysis software systems or directly support Australia government agencies and industries to correctly assess a situation, increase awareness for crisis problems, and therefore improve emergency management and decision-making effectiveness, in particular, for avoiding disaster problems in the first place and preparing plans for those that undoubtedly will occur.
