Efficient and secure data integrity auditing on cloud. Data auditing presents a promising way for verifying user data integrity on cloud, i.e., whether user privacy sensitive data such as identity information on cloud is modified or lost. Current auditing approaches lack sufficient efficiency and security. This results in that they cannot provide timely warning and precaution on potential data loss threats. This project aims to systematically investigate this significant challenge and expects to ....Efficient and secure data integrity auditing on cloud. Data auditing presents a promising way for verifying user data integrity on cloud, i.e., whether user privacy sensitive data such as identity information on cloud is modified or lost. Current auditing approaches lack sufficient efficiency and security. This results in that they cannot provide timely warning and precaution on potential data loss threats. This project aims to systematically investigate this significant challenge and expects to establish innovative research and solutions for enabling efficient and secure data integrity auditing on cloud. The project outcomes will help to safeguard Australian community in fast-growing cyber world, and benefit to fast-growing user privacy sensitive data hosting and applications on cloud.Read moreRead less
Secure and Energy Efficient mmWave Unmanned Aerial Vehicles Communications. Future wireless networks comprising unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in millimeter wave bands will provide ubiquitous connectivity to a massive number of devices, even in unexpected situations such as disaster relief. Common wireless security solutions are developed only for terrestrial infrastructures but are unsuitable for mmWave UAVs due to the high mobility and limited energy supply.

Low-energy electro-photonics: novel materials, devices and systems. This project aims to develop low-power technologies for programming and tuning photonic integrated circuits (PICs). By replacing thermal tuning, the project will reduce power consumption from watts to milliwatts, which also eliminates the thermal crosstalk that limits the complexity of today's PICs. The expected outcome will be the basis for a generic field-programmable photonic chip, which can be used to rapidly prototype desig ....Low-energy electro-photonics: novel materials, devices and systems. This project aims to develop low-power technologies for programming and tuning photonic integrated circuits (PICs). By replacing thermal tuning, the project will reduce power consumption from watts to milliwatts, which also eliminates the thermal crosstalk that limits the complexity of today's PICs. The expected outcome will be the basis for a generic field-programmable photonic chip, which can be used to rapidly prototype designs for production as full custom chips as part of a new Australian industry capability. The expected benefits will be a faster innovation cycle, greater adoption of photonic technologies, and support of research into, for example, neuromorphic optical processing, and advanced communications and sensing systems.Read moreRead less

This project aims to develop a secure mobile edge computing platform for resilient logistic and supply chain management. It consists of easy-used functions that help businesses realise low latency, high reliability, low cost, and high security in their logistics and supply chain system. To cope with the vast generated application data, we invent new data replication, placement, and deduplication techniques to optimise the mobile edge computing platform from the computation, storage, and network aspects. The invented mobile edge computing platform will enable more intelligent business applications for various industries, e.g., IT, manufacturing, and media, to appear, thus benefiting both the economy of Australia.Read moreRead less

Summary
The next generation fast radio burst detector for Australia. This project intends to provide a next-generation fast radio burst detector for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. The project expects to both transform our understanding of fast radio bursts, enigmatic flashes of radio waves of unknown origin, but also use the bursts as tools to study the cosmic web of matter that resides in intergalactic space.

This project intends to provide a next-generation fast radio burst detector for the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. The project expects to both transform our understanding of fast radio bursts, enigmatic flashes of radio waves of unknown origin, but also use the bursts as tools to study the cosmic web of matter that resides in intergalactic space. To do so, the project aims to deliver a more sensitive detection system capable of localising a large sample of fast radio bursts to greater distances, found commensal to other observations. This should provide significant benefit, including the resolutions to key open astrophysical questions and improved scientific outcomes for transient searches with the Square Kilometre Array.Read moreRead less
