In this project innovative IT methods will be developed to assist biologists to solve complex and important biological problems. Many important applications in computational biology need very accurate and reliable tools for multiple sequence alignment and phylogeny reconstruction. Unfortunately, current existing tools are unreliable and are prone to serious errors when applied to large and divergent biological sequences. The success of this project will not only make significant contribution to the relevant research fields, but also help achieve goals in certain real-life biological research projects which are unique and important to Australia.Read moreRead less
Evolutionary multi-objective algorithms for Global Grids. This research investigates alternative software technologies for Grid-based evolutionary multi-objective decision algorithms. By employing the latest adaptive techniques and taking advantage of the low cost Grid infrastructure, new parallel evolutionary systems will be developed that can rapidly supply robust solutions to complex problems. This project will further develop an understanding of scaling issues in parallel evolutionary syste ....Evolutionary multi-objective algorithms for Global Grids. This research investigates alternative software technologies for Grid-based evolutionary multi-objective decision algorithms. By employing the latest adaptive techniques and taking advantage of the low cost Grid infrastructure, new parallel evolutionary systems will be developed that can rapidly supply robust solutions to complex problems. This project will further develop an understanding of scaling issues in parallel evolutionary systems and pave the way for even more widespread application of evolutionary techniques for large scale, data-intensive applications in science and industry.Read moreRead less

Experimental runtime complexity analysis of logic programs. While declarative languages improve programmer productivity, they make it harder for programmers to understand the performance of their code. We will build a tool that will use profiling data and program analysis to allow programmers to predict the running time of their programs.
