Summary
History, the archives and new technologies: developing the Australian women's archives project. This project will create and define generic tools and services to increase the productivity of those involved with the creation, maintenance and use of source material for humanities research. It will provide a pathway to move this infrastructure onto a more sustainable footing and address issues of information overload, authority and quality facing researchers in the networked digital age. This imper ....History, the archives and new technologies: developing the Australian women's archives project. This project will create and define generic tools and services to increase the productivity of those involved with the creation, maintenance and use of source material for humanities research. It will provide a pathway to move this infrastructure onto a more sustainable footing and address issues of information overload, authority and quality facing researchers in the networked digital age. This imperative is seen by scholars and representatives of the nation's major collecting institutions as a primary limiting factor in the contemporary research environment. The project will enhance Australia's reputation as a world leader in the development of web-based information infrastructure to support research and scholarship.Read moreRead less
Towards an Information Theory of Radar. Radar is a key sensing technology for the defence of Australia. It is also used in several civilian applications. Recent advances in engineering and science have led to significantly increased inherent capabilities for radar hardware. Nonetheless, radars in service and planned are unable to counter many current threats. To a large extent these new capabilities have yet to be fully exploited, and in large part this is because of the lack of an information ....Towards an Information Theory of Radar. Radar is a key sensing technology for the defence of Australia. It is also used in several civilian applications. Recent advances in engineering and science have led to significantly increased inherent capabilities for radar hardware. Nonetheless, radars in service and planned are unable to counter many current threats. To a large extent these new capabilities have yet to be fully exploited, and in large part this is because of the lack of an information theory for radar that corresponds to the highly successful theory of this kind for telecommunications. Our work, though pitched at fundamental ideas in the theory of radar, will lead to the production of improved radar capability that will permit improved threat detection and tracking.Read moreRead less
