Test bed for wide-area software defined networking research: This project aims to develop a wide-area test bed, spanning ten organisations, for conducting research and experimentation in the emerging disruptive technology of Software Defined Networking (SDN). SDN is likely to bring long-term transformation to the networking industry, much like cloud computing did, by enabling dynamic virtualised elastic network services under software control. The test bed will empower Australian researchers in network technologies and dependent applications (for example, multimedia and security) to collaboratively develop and demonstrate novel ideas at scale. This is expected to benefit Australia by giving our researchers international recognition in this nascent area, and developing a national talent pool for local industry.Read moreRead less
An integrative and distributed data management and workflow framework for e-research in biomedical imaging. This project will develop new tools for neuroimaging research: (i) efficient distributed infrastructure and workflow capabilities and (ii) semantic tools using existing ontological frameworks and specific neuroimaging ontologies.
These new capabilities will significantly enhance the productivity of neuroimaging research.

Summary
Internet of things testbed for creating a Smart City. The Internet of Things Testbed facility replicates the conditions of a city-wide distribution of sensors and data collection applications to model in real time the functioning urban sensing elements of a smart city, translating vast amounts of sensor data into meaningful information and ultimately action.
Congestion control of networks: a unified stochastic framework. Systems such as the internet, wireless networks and the power grid require efficient allocation of shared resources. This research will develop ways to reduce delays in the internet and allow for growth in the power grid, without requiring additional infrastructure.
Integrating technological and organisational approaches to enhance the safety of roadworkers. Across Australia about 50 people are killed and 750 are injured in crashes at roadworks each year, costing hundreds of millions of dollars. Making roadworks safer is a complicated task, involving multiple organisations as well as the motoring public. This project will develop and evaluate an integrated program including research into new technologies, testing of strategies to improve organisational and ....Integrating technological and organisational approaches to enhance the safety of roadworkers. Across Australia about 50 people are killed and 750 are injured in crashes at roadworks each year, costing hundreds of millions of dollars. Making roadworks safer is a complicated task, involving multiple organisations as well as the motoring public. This project will develop and evaluate an integrated program including research into new technologies, testing of strategies to improve organisational and safety culture, and investigation of education approaches. At a time of unprecedented spending on improving Australia's road infrastructure, this research will contribute to ensuring the safety of the workers directly involved in the road improvements necessary to achieve major long-term economic and social benefits.Read moreRead less
Software debuggers for next generation heterogeneous supercomputers. Supercomputing underpins a wide range of areas of importance to the Australian economy; mining, agriculture, engineering and medical research to name a few. It is of critical importance that software solutions in these areas behave correctly. This project will develop software tools and techniques to help locate errors in such applications.
Creating a smart city through internet of things. This project will deliver smart new ways of urban monitoring using ubiquitous sensing and data analysis for city management and sustainability. It will deliver researcher training, global clientele for local technology and a platform for local industry growth.
Towards Engineering Behavioural Research Design Systems. Behavioural research is a significant component of the annual spend in Australia on research and development. It is contended that 'best practice' behavioural research methods can be more systematised, transparent and visible; facilitating more complex, integrated and holistic research designs; and thereby, more cumulative and comparable results; thus enabling increased rigor, higher productivity and lower risk than have generally been the ....Towards Engineering Behavioural Research Design Systems. Behavioural research is a significant component of the annual spend in Australia on research and development. It is contended that 'best practice' behavioural research methods can be more systematised, transparent and visible; facilitating more complex, integrated and holistic research designs; and thereby, more cumulative and comparable results; thus enabling increased rigor, higher productivity and lower risk than have generally been the experience historically. This project proposes the formal conceptualisation and modelling of behavioural science research methods, by adapting them to the research design, the well understood concepts, tools and techniques of Information Systems design. Results are expected to form the conceptual basis of 'Research Design Systems.'Read moreRead less
A framework for scalable ontology enrichment and change. This project aims to develop novel techniques and software systems for constructing a new generation of knowledge management applications. The results will improve current information management technologies and will be used in practical applications such as the semantic web, bioinformatics and e-sciences.
Business process decomposition. This project will develop guidelines to assist analysts in managing complex business processes by decomposing them into more manageable processes. The project outcomes will make it easier to make informed decisions about process re-design, business innovation or software development, thus contributing to project cost savings.
