Adoption of electronic commerce-enabled supply chain management: a trans-national comparison study. The framework developed will allow practitioners to identify an appropriate strategy to promote the adoption of EC-enabled SCM in developing countries. By including Indonesia and China as two of Australia's large trading partners in this study, the relationships can be further enhanced, leading to an increase in Australia's export market and improvement in national productivity and growth. Through ....Adoption of electronic commerce-enabled supply chain management: a trans-national comparison study. The framework developed will allow practitioners to identify an appropriate strategy to promote the adoption of EC-enabled SCM in developing countries. By including Indonesia and China as two of Australia's large trading partners in this study, the relationships can be further enhanced, leading to an increase in Australia's export market and improvement in national productivity and growth. Through wider adoption of EC-enabled SCM by Australia's trading partners, Australia can trade with them more efficiently. The empirical data and the research instruments developed will also enhance Australia's research standing and contribute to university teaching and research training. Read moreRead less

Summary
Smart Use of Information Technologies (SUITs). The SUITs network will develop critical mass in world-class, leading-edge research into the smart use of information and communication technology (ICT) through integration of research within the dispersed Australian ICT research community and through facilitating international linkages. The network will undertake research applicable in key sectors including the health, education, service, knowledge and media industries. The aim is to establish a h ....Smart Use of Information Technologies (SUITs). The SUITs network will develop critical mass in world-class, leading-edge research into the smart use of information and communication technology (ICT) through integration of research within the dispersed Australian ICT research community and through facilitating international linkages. The network will undertake research applicable in key sectors including the health, education, service, knowledge and media industries. The aim is to establish a higher order of coordination and collaboration in research into ICT applications.
The feasibility study proposed will engage key stakeholders, refine research goals and investigate linkage mechanisms to improve Australia's ICT research and its contribution to economic and social well-being.

Structured natural language descriptions for semantic content retrieval of visual data. The richness of visual data complicates the task of indexing their content for database retrieval. Retrieval based on semantic content is more natural than retrieval based on textures or colours but the most common approach - keyword search - lacks precision, while a newer approach - automatic parsing of free-text descriptions - lacks accuracy. We propose a system of metadata and content descriptions, where c ....Structured natural language descriptions for semantic content retrieval of visual data. The richness of visual data complicates the task of indexing their content for database retrieval. Retrieval based on semantic content is more natural than retrieval based on textures or colours but the most common approach - keyword search - lacks precision, while a newer approach - automatic parsing of free-text descriptions - lacks accuracy. We propose a system of metadata and content descriptions, where content descriptions must be phrases composed of basic grammatical terms. Description components may be elements from external resources such as thesauri and databases, providing a rich superstructure for meaningful retrieval of visual data by semantic content.Read moreRead less
