This project aims to address one of the most vexing questions in the management of information systems: how to unlock the value of digital investments. The project expects to develop new theory and evidence on how to achieve meaningful use of information systems at multiple levels of analysis. The project will especially benefit the health sector, and society, by helping health providers and vendors to maximise the value obtained from substantial investment in digital technologies, and by developing evidence-based policies to optimise digital service delivery.Read moreRead less

The aim of this research is to develop a care-oriented reference information and communication model (RIM) that will inform national policy for the development of a national information technology strategic plan for aged care. The model will reflect the domain specific content and work of service providers and consumers in the aged and community care context and the unique cultural, social and professional attributes of this sector. The model will be used to evaluate the applicability of the HealthOnline framework, including the relevance of emerging interoperability standards to the aged and community care sector.Read moreRead less
A New Approach to Air Traffic Management to Deliver Significantly Reduced Environmental Impact and System-wide Efficiencies. Aviation is often cited as a major contributor to harmful emissions in the upper atmosphere. The primary outcome of this project is the development of tools that will enable aviation industry stakeholders to optimise the deployment of 4-Dimensional User Preferred Trajectories across Australian airspace. It is expected that this will result in significant environmental bene ....A New Approach to Air Traffic Management to Deliver Significantly Reduced Environmental Impact and System-wide Efficiencies. Aviation is often cited as a major contributor to harmful emissions in the upper atmosphere. The primary outcome of this project is the development of tools that will enable aviation industry stakeholders to optimise the deployment of 4-Dimensional User Preferred Trajectories across Australian airspace. It is expected that this will result in significant environmental benefit, through reductions in fuel burn for each flight, and increases in system effectiveness. The project will enable better analysis of Australian aviation environmental effect, whilst at the same time allowing the aviation industry to continue to contribute to Australia's sustainable economic growth.

Bio-Acoustic Observatory: Engaging Birdwatchers to Monitor Biodiversity by Collaboratively Collecting and Analysing Big Audio Data. This project will research how to crowd-source the collection and analysis of environmental animal sounds (for example, birds, frogs). This will enable a bio-acoustic observatory which provides a scalable, objective and permanent record of the environment, something hitherto impossible. The project will investigate how to engage the community of birdwatchers to exte ....Bio-Acoustic Observatory: Engaging Birdwatchers to Monitor Biodiversity by Collaboratively Collecting and Analysing Big Audio Data. This project will research how to crowd-source the collection and analysis of environmental animal sounds (for example, birds, frogs). This will enable a bio-acoustic observatory which provides a scalable, objective and permanent record of the environment, something hitherto impossible. The project will investigate how to engage the community of birdwatchers to extend their pastime online with new kinds of interactive tools to enable collaborative analysis of big audio data, and new kinds of birding experiences. Outcomes will be: new approaches to physical/virtual engagement in human-computer interaction; new approaches to analysing big data; a new validated ecological monitoring technique and concepts for sustainable knowledge generation communities.Read moreRead less
Distributed Data Processing for Wireless Sensor Networks. This project falls within the national research priorities of Frontier Technologies for building and transforming Australian Industries, and will provide Australian companies with state-of-the-art technology in wireless sensor networks (WSN). Australia's priorities are mainly in sustainable environment, health maintenance, and home-land security. Any application in these priority areas that uses our system will have less maintenance costs ....Distributed Data Processing for Wireless Sensor Networks. This project falls within the national research priorities of Frontier Technologies for building and transforming Australian Industries, and will provide Australian companies with state-of-the-art technology in wireless sensor networks (WSN). Australia's priorities are mainly in sustainable environment, health maintenance, and home-land security. Any application in these priority areas that uses our system will have less maintenance costs and a significantly longer lifetime.
This project will generate numerous articles in first-class journals and conferences and will contribute to the strength of Australian Research in sensor technologies and ICT. Read moreRead less
Efficient processing of large scale multi-dimensional graphs. This project aims to develop novel approaches to process large scale multi-dimensional graphs. The project will focus on the three most representative types of problems against multi-dimensional graphs, namely cohesive subgraph computation, frequent subgraph mining, and subgraph matching.

The proposed PDA based POC system will provide for collection, delivery and exchange of timely information at point of care. The advantage of such a system will be its high mobility and flexibility matching complex healthcare workflow requirements. Through a prototype development for Ambulatory Care Services generic reusable and scalable components will be designed. The prototype will provide an immediate solution to the problem of improving workflow and work processes within Ambulatory Care services and delivery more efficient healthcare. The development of reusable and scalable components will mean that Ambulatory Care Services will have an application that is technology independent and thus allow new technologies to be "plugged in" as they become available and other mobile healthcare community workers will be able to utilize the components for applications of PDAs at POC.Read moreRead less
