Formal modelling and analysis of software requirements for air traffic management systems for improved integrity assurance. This project will significantly reduce the time and cost of developing software for critical applications such as aviation and air traffic management. As well as improving the trustworthiness of safety-critical computer-based systems, this project will also enable system improvements to be deployed faster and more reliably.
Defending AI based FinTech Systems against Model Extraction Attacks. This project aims to develop new methods for defending artificial intelligence (AI) based FinTech systems from highly potent and insidious model extraction attacks whereby an adversary can steal the AI model from the system to cause intellectual property (IP) violation, business advantage disruption, and financial loss. This can be achieved by examining various attack models, creating active and utility-preserving defences, and ....Defending AI based FinTech Systems against Model Extraction Attacks. This project aims to develop new methods for defending artificial intelligence (AI) based FinTech systems from highly potent and insidious model extraction attacks whereby an adversary can steal the AI model from the system to cause intellectual property (IP) violation, business advantage disruption, and financial loss. This can be achieved by examining various attack models, creating active and utility-preserving defences, and inventing non-removable watermarks on AI models. The outcomes are new tools for securing AI-based FinTech systems before deployment and tools for IP violation forensics post-deployment. Such capabilities are beneficial by improving the security and safety of FinTech systems and other nationally critical AI systems.Read moreRead less
Understanding the impact of enterprise system use on system performance. To optimise organizational benefits, resource intensive enterprise systems must be appropriately used by all user cohorts. This study investigates the impact of system-use on system success. System-use patterns derived for all key user cohorts across the lifecycle phases will create management matrices to assist organizations maximise system-use.
Fusion of digital microscopy and plain text reports for automated analysis. The project aims to develop advanced computer-aided analytics systems with the goal to improve the workflow and automation in the pathology industry. Improvements will be achieved by fusing information from both digital images and plain text medical reports. In collaboration with a partner organisation, the project team will field trial the new analytics systems against traditional pathology tests to evaluate both effica ....Fusion of digital microscopy and plain text reports for automated analysis.

Embedding Enterprise Systems in IoT Fog Networks through Microservices. The project will enable automated re-engineering of enterprise systems, to allow them to reused in Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. It will support efficient ways in which the core business logic of these large scale and monolithic systems can be extended into resource control and data sensing functions managed through the IoT. The project will develop a novel, fine-grained software architecture style suitable for loca ....Embedding Enterprise Systems in IoT Fog Networks through Microservices. The project will enable automated re-engineering of enterprise systems, to allow them to reused in Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. It will support efficient ways in which the core business logic of these large scale and monolithic systems can be extended into resource control and data sensing functions managed through the IoT. The project will develop a novel, fine-grained software architecture style suitable for localised IoT execution, through microservices executing autonomously on nodes of IoT fog networks. It will develop new techniques for automated discovery of microservices from enterprise systems and the verification of future-state system execution based on current-state behavioural and other properties such as security.Read moreRead less

Summary
Novel statistical algorithms and methods to quantify and partition pleiotropy between complex traits in populations. A fundamental question in biology is how common genetic effects are shared between traits or groups. For example, is cognition or human behaviour genetically identical across genders or across human population groups? This project will address these questions using multiple independent genome-wide association studies.
Information Systems (IS)-Impact utility and intuitiveness: a rigorous approach to relevance. This study aims to evaluate the key elements of models used in design science to assess the impact of information systems. The work will examine the extent to which rigour and relevance are incorporated into these models.
Facilitating business process standardisation and reuse. One of the most pressing management challenges of today's organisations lies in the reuse and standardisation of best practices across different sectors, products or units. This project will develop an innovative open-source software platform and governance structure to efficiently and effectively support best practice standardisation and reuse.
Learning human activities through low cost, unobtrusive RFID technology. A rapidly growing aged population presents many challenges to Australia's health and aged care services. The outcomes of this project will help aging Australians live in their own homes longer, with greater independence and safety by providing an automated, unobtrusive means for health professionals to monitor activity and intervene as required.
