The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) invites you to participate in a short survey about your
interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we
deliver and to report on user satisfaction to the Australian Government’s National Collaborative Research
Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Need for Speed: Towards Controller Design Automation for Power Electronics. This project aims to address the need for advanced controller design automation tools for power electronics systems by advocating a novel design paradigm. The project expects to seek breakthroughs in the modelling and optimisation aspects of power electronics systems and generate new automation tools for existing and emerging power electronics applications. Expected outcome include significant reduction of controller dev ....Need for Speed: Towards Controller Design Automation for Power Electronics. This project aims to address the need for advanced controller design automation tools for power electronics systems by advocating a novel design paradigm. The project expects to seek breakthroughs in the modelling and optimisation aspects of power electronics systems and generate new automation tools for existing and emerging power electronics applications. Expected outcome include significant reduction of controller development cycle time and cost, minimisation of human oversight, and maximisation of system performance. Profound benefits include maintaining Australia’s leadership in a wide range of sectors such as renewable energy and electric vehicles demanding rapid development cycles and realisation of Australia’s zero-carbon vision.

Regional Australia' skills shortages and high-skill refugees' employment . Regional Australia loses to cities thousands of professional and trade-related people whose skills cannot be replaced. Focusing on small and medium-size enterprises producing food and beverages, this project aims to determine whether refugee employment (i) is a strategic resource (ii) can alleviate these chronic regional skill shortages, and (iii) can be integrated in immigration policy.

Regional Australia loses to cities thousands of professional and trade-related people whose skills cannot be replaced. Focusing on small and medium-size enterprises producing food and beverages, this project aims to determine whether refugee employment (i) is a strategic resource (ii) can alleviate these chronic regional skill shortages, and (iii) can be integrated in immigration policy. In doing so, it will for the first time provide critical empirical evidence on the possible need to separate policy measures aimed at rural vs. urban employers. The outcomes will contribute to reducing the problem of critical skill shortages and wastage at once and do so with an eye to the needs to rural Australia – a key driver of the country’s exports.
