This project aims to investigate and provide solutions for the realisation of a seemingly integrated Fog Computing (FC) paradigm with cloud environments, networking devices and Internet of Things devices. Fog Computing (FC) is an emerging paradigm with great promises for advancing Information and Communications Technologies. Using interdisciplinary approaches, the project expects to generate new knowledge for optimising both hardware and software resources of a FC system. Outcomes of this project include practical solutions through building novel mathematical frameworks and optimisation objectives. The project is expected to provide efficient monitoring and control of intelligent spaces, management of urban and rural environments and will have applications in the areas of energy, security, transport and public health.Read moreRead less
Approximate reasoning with qualitative spatial constraints involving landmarks. Applications like emergency management of bushfires, floods, or earthquake require spatial information systems to integrate multiple kinds of information and make intelligent responses in a very limited time. This project will make breakthroughs in developing efficient methods to reason about complex spatial situations.
