Coding for Distributed Storage: Fundamental Limits and Code Designs. Applications such as file sharing, large-scale scientific projects, and social networking are fuelling the need for reliable and sustainable distributed storage systems. This project aims to develop the theory and the code designs for next-generation storage systems that are specifically optimised for the storage needs in such applications. This project is well placed to provide cost-effective, home-grown solutions for Australi ....Coding for Distributed Storage: Fundamental Limits and Code Designs. Applications such as file sharing, large-scale scientific projects, and social networking are fuelling the need for reliable and sustainable distributed storage systems. This project aims to develop the theory and the code designs for next-generation storage systems that are specifically optimised for the storage needs in such applications. This project is well placed to provide cost-effective, home-grown solutions for Australia's future data centre needs. Its potential immediate benefits are: contribution to the knowledge base and fundamental capabilities in storage systems; practical codes tailor-made for different storage applications; IP creation and commercialisation; and, education of future Australian academic and industrial innovators.Read moreRead less
Readying Wireless Networks for Future Communications Systems: From Ubiquitous Computing to the Internet of Things. This project aims to prepare wireless networks for future communications systems, by improving the data transmission rates of wireless networks, through developing new coding schemes based on the synergy of noisy-channel coding and index coding. This will allow wireless networks, used in conjunction with the fibre-optic National Broadband Network, to support future high-data-rate an ....Readying Wireless Networks for Future Communications Systems: From Ubiquitous Computing to the Internet of Things. This project aims to prepare wireless networks for future communications systems, by improving the data transmission rates of wireless networks, through developing new coding schemes based on the synergy of noisy-channel coding and index coding. This will allow wireless networks, used in conjunction with the fibre-optic National Broadband Network, to support future high-data-rate and ubiquitous communication services. This project aims to produce new theoretical results in the field of communication theory, and efficient practical coding schemes for wireless communications.Read moreRead less
