This project aims to create a breakthrough switching dynamics approach and new technology to speed up finding optimal solutions. It will develop a distributed switching dynamics based optimisation scheme for global optimisation problems in industrial big-data environments where timely decision making is required. It will result in a practical technology for industry optimisation problems such as economic energy dispatch in smart grids and optimal charging and discharging tasks in a large network of electric vehicles, helping Australian power industry improve efficiency and security, as well as training the next generation scientists and engineers for Australia in this emerging field.Read moreRead less
Supporting dynamic multidimensional entrepreneurial resilience in Australia. This project aims to model entrepreneurial resilience, its formation and its influence on how creative transformation occurs, and whether ex ante adaptive capacity is in turn enhanced by having mastered crises. The project proposes a theoretical model to holistically measure resilience across the life course. Using longitudinal data for self-employed individuals in Australia the project analyses the impact of crisis and ....Supporting dynamic multidimensional entrepreneurial resilience in Australia. This project aims to model entrepreneurial resilience, its formation and its influence on how creative transformation occurs, and whether ex ante adaptive capacity is in turn enhanced by having mastered crises. The project proposes a theoretical model to holistically measure resilience across the life course. Using longitudinal data for self-employed individuals in Australia the project analyses the impact of crisis and economic policy on entrepreneur’s behaviour and SMEs entry exit decisions. The project informs policy making through employing discrete choice experiments to elicit entrepreneur’s preferences for government policy and support post crisis. Read moreRead less
