Inter-user interference is becoming the dominant bottleneck in state-of-the-art wireless networks. This project aims to address this bottleneck problem by studying a new paradigm, referred to as a Distributed-Input Distributed-Output (DIDO) wireless system, which makes the best use of interference. Results from information theory and modern coding techniques will be advanced to develop new design principles and novel physical-layer coding techniques of DIDO systems, leading to substantially improved throughput, reliability, energy efficiency and robustness. This project aims to develop fundamentally enhanced wireless infrastructure with targeted applications in cellular and wireless networks, satellite communications and wireless sensor networks.Read moreRead less

Interactive and scalable media over software defined networks. A novel API and associated algorithms will be developed to exploit the emerging technology of software defined networks (SDN) for improving the efficiency and responsiveness of interactive media browsing applications. The approach applies to conventional streaming video as well as more interactive services based on scalable media compression and communication technology, notably JPIP (IS15444-9) video. Recent advances in motion codin ....Interactive and scalable media over software defined networks. A novel API and associated algorithms will be developed to exploit the emerging technology of software defined networks (SDN) for improving the efficiency and responsiveness of interactive media browsing applications. The approach applies to conventional streaming video as well as more interactive services based on scalable media compression and communication technology, notably JPIP (IS15444-9) video. Recent advances in motion coding will be combined with new spatio-temporal transforms to develop an efficient inter-frame extension to the JPEG 2000 standard that is fully compatible with JPIP. Each of these innovations is important in its own right, but together they will facilitate a highly compelling interactive media browsing experience.Read moreRead less
Information theoretic approaches to optimise genome wide association studies with application to continuous and discrete traits. This project aims to develop new mathematical methods to find genetic associations from new genome-wide studies of colorectal cancer and breast cancer risk factors. If successful, this will result in improved use of expensive genetic data to better predict and understand diseases, conditions and other characteristics for humans, animals and plants.
Optimum cross-layer design in wireless communication systems with channel uncertainty. For wireless communications to be part of Australia's information delivery infrastructure, including the National Broadband Network, requires improvements in reliability, speed and cost effectiveness over current technologies. The assembled world class research team has the objective to develop advanced design techniques to meet this challenge.
