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
Managing Knowledge in Web-Driven Organisational Evolution. Organisations are increasingly concerned with the effective utilisation of Web technologies, and especially the ways in which these technologies can be used to improve their business. Effective management of knowledge about the interplay between the organisation and technical drivers of this technology adoption will enable a much-enhanced process for leveraging emerging information and communication technologies. This project aims to li ....Managing Knowledge in Web-Driven Organisational Evolution. Organisations are increasingly concerned with the effective utilisation of Web technologies, and especially the ways in which these technologies can be used to improve their business. Effective management of knowledge about the interplay between the organisation and technical drivers of this technology adoption will enable a much-enhanced process for leveraging emerging information and communication technologies. This project aims to link related research at UTS and Southampton University to understand how tools might support this knowledge management. Outcomes will include the creation of specific tools (and techniques for using them) within the context of managing organisational uptake of new technologies.Read moreRead less
High-performance real-time OS framework for low-power applications. Wireless network adapters, as they are being developed by Cisco, will find widespread use in the near future, as they are the basis of all mobile or otherwise disconnected intelligent devices. These devices must process data very rapidly, yet operate with minimal power consumption. We will develop operating system kernels that will support the secure, efficient and protected execution of the core processing firmware, and provide ....High-performance real-time OS framework for low-power applications. Wireless network adapters, as they are being developed by Cisco, will find widespread use in the near future, as they are the basis of all mobile or otherwise disconnected intelligent devices. These devices must process data very rapidly, yet operate with minimal power consumption. We will develop operating system kernels that will support the secure, efficient and protected execution of the core processing firmware, and provide application frameworks for the controlling higher software layers. We will also investigate and design hardware mechanisms that support the software while keeping power consumption minimal.Read moreRead less
