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.

COMPLEX NETWORKS: DYNAMICS, OPTIMIZATION AND CONTROL. Complex networks such large power grids, the Internet, transportation networks and co-operation networks of all kinds provide challenges for frontier technologies particularly computing, communication and control. In particular, advanced societies have become dependent on large infrastructure networks to an extent beyond our capability to plan and control them. The recent spate of collapses in power grids and virus attacks on the Internet i ....COMPLEX NETWORKS: DYNAMICS, OPTIMIZATION AND CONTROL. Complex networks such large power grids, the Internet, transportation networks and co-operation networks of all kinds provide challenges for frontier technologies particularly computing, communication and control. In particular, advanced societies have become dependent on large infrastructure networks to an extent beyond our capability to plan and control them. The recent spate of collapses in power grids and virus attacks on the Internet illustrate the need for research on modelling, analysis of behaviour, planning and control in such networks. This project aims to establish research in this area for Australia's benefit.Read moreRead less
Multicast in Single-Hop and Multi-Hop WDM Optical Networks. The emerging Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) optical network is a promising candidate for next-generation Internet, which provides enormous bandwidth and fast connectivity. Multicast in WDM networks is a fundamental problem which has wide applications including teleconferencing, entertainment distribution, etc. In this project we investigate the multicast and constraint multicast problems in both single-hop and multi-hop WDM netw ....Multicast in Single-Hop and Multi-Hop WDM Optical Networks. The emerging Wavelength-Division-Multiplexing (WDM) optical network is a promising candidate for next-generation Internet, which provides enormous bandwidth and fast connectivity. Multicast in WDM networks is a fundamental problem which has wide applications including teleconferencing, entertainment distribution, etc. In this project we investigate the multicast and constraint multicast problems in both single-hop and multi-hop WDM networks by studying their computational complexities and devising scalable, high-quality approximation algorithms for them. The developed algorithms significantly improve the network performance and scalability, and the innovative approaches and algorithm techniques developed in this project are also applicable to other routing problems.Read moreRead less
