Floor trading versus computer trading - Does it matter? Computer systems for securities trading date from the 1980s. These systems are large, costly and extremely complex. Outcomes from their introduction were unforeseen and the relevant research literature is sparse. This project will investigate experimentally with a simulated trading system the effects on trading behaviour of important system parameters. Intelligent support systems for traders will also be developed and tested. The project ....Floor trading versus computer trading - Does it matter? Computer systems for securities trading date from the 1980s. These systems are large, costly and extremely complex. Outcomes from their introduction were unforeseen and the relevant research literature is sparse. This project will investigate experimentally with a simulated trading system the effects on trading behaviour of important system parameters. Intelligent support systems for traders will also be developed and tested. The project team combines needed expertise from the areas of human decision making, finance, and advanced information technologies. Results will be important for theory of market microstructure and interactive intelligent systems and also for an important industry in Australia.Read moreRead less

Summary
Improving Australia's Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Research. The network will bring together over 50 active researchers in data mining and knowledge discovery to enhance and better coordinate Australia's impressive research performance in these dual disciplines. Specifically, the network will (a) facilitate communication and collaboration between researchers, (b) fund or underwrite opportunities for international collaboration, (c) run a number of specialist workshops and symposia and (d ....Improving Australia's Data Mining and Knowledge Discovery Research.
