The project aims to maximise capacity, data rate and user mobility in wireless communication systems and will advance Australia's fundamental knowledge base in this field so that it stays at the forefront of international research in mobile communications. The application of research outcomes by the Australian telecommunications industry will improve the extent and quality of mobile networks, increasing network capacity and the number of mobile phone subscribers in Australia. This project will also optimise the use of mobile network resources (such as bandwidth and power) in next generation mobile networks, which in turn will result in faster and more reliable services such as wireless Internet access for business and private use.Read moreRead less
Optimum cross-layer design in wireless communication systems with channel uncertainty. For wireless communications to be part of Australia's information delivery infrastructure, including the National Broadband Network, requires improvements in reliability, speed and cost effectiveness over current technologies. The assembled world class research team has the objective to develop advanced design techniques to meet this challenge.

Summary
History, the archives and new technologies: developing the Australian women's archives project. This project will create and define generic tools and services to increase the productivity of those involved with the creation, maintenance and use of source material for humanities research. It will provide a pathway to move this infrastructure onto a more sustainable footing and address issues of information overload, authority and quality facing researchers in the networked digital age.

This project will create and define generic tools and services to increase the productivity of those involved with the creation, maintenance and use of source material for humanities research. It will provide a pathway to move this infrastructure onto a more sustainable footing and address issues of information overload, authority and quality facing researchers in the networked digital age. This imperative is seen by scholars and representatives of the nation's major collecting institutions as a primary limiting factor in the contemporary research environment. The project will enhance Australia's reputation as a world leader in the development of web-based information infrastructure to support research and scholarship.Read moreRead less
From Universal Induction to Intelligent Systems. The dream of creating artificial devices that (out)reach human intelligence is an old one. What makes this challenge so interesting? A solution would have enormous implications for our society, and there are arguments that the AI problem might be solved within a couple of decades. Specialized intelligent systems are actually already pervasive (finger print, handwriting, speech, and face recognition; spam filtering; search engines; computer chess; ....From Universal Induction to Intelligent Systems. The dream of creating artificial devices that (out)reach human intelligence is an old one. What makes this challenge so interesting? A solution would have enormous implications for our society, and there are arguments that the AI problem might be solved within a couple of decades. Specialized intelligent systems are actually already pervasive (finger print, handwriting, speech, and face recognition; spam filtering; search engines; computer chess; robots). This decade the first presumably complete mathematical theory of AI has been proposed. By working out this theory, this project will significantly contribute to the foundations of inductive inference and AI, and ultimately lead to smarter software and intelligent systems.Read moreRead less
Design of dynamic visual signals. Models of the design of visual signals depend heavily upon analyses of static ornaments. Nothing is known about dynamic visual signals. We will use an array of new techniques to tackle this problem for the first time. Motion analyses will define the task faced by the visual system. Sensory limitations will be measured to identify constraints on signal evolution. Digital video playback studies will assess recognition and explain aspects of signal design. Results ....Design of dynamic visual signals. Models of the design of visual signals depend heavily upon analyses of static ornaments. Nothing is known about dynamic visual signals. We will use an array of new techniques to tackle this problem for the first time. Motion analyses will define the task faced by the visual system. Sensory limitations will be measured to identify constraints on signal evolution. Digital video playback studies will assess recognition and explain aspects of signal design. Results will test the generality of principles that have been developed in studies of female mate choice and extend these ideas to address intra-sexual selection operating through opponent assessment.Read moreRead less
Optimising throughput and Delay in network coded systems. This project addresses one main disadvantage of network coding: decoding delay. By solving this issue, we will unlock the true potential of network coding: delivery of high data rates in wireless and wireline networks. This will make network coding an attractive choice for live video streaming and mission-critical delay-sensitive applications.
Extending fuzzy logic. Fuzzy logic is good for dealing with uncertain data somewhat like people do, and this technique has been used in train braking systems, computer animation etc, but can be slow for problems with large or complex data especially if the data are changing with time. The project will design efficient fuzzy logic algorithms capable of dealing with complex real world problems.
User-task co-adaptation for effective interactive simulation environments. This project aims to deliver smart interactive simulation environments in which users and simulation tasks work together. This project aims to create novel adaptive algorithms to automatically discover those user and task features that vary together to smartly adapt users and simulation tasks to work together harmoniously, seamlessly and effectively. Interactive simulation environments are the backbone for evaluating conc ....User-task co-adaptation for effective interactive simulation environments. This project aims to deliver smart interactive simulation environments in which users and simulation tasks work together. This project aims to create novel adaptive algorithms to automatically discover those user and task features that vary together to smartly adapt users and simulation tasks to work together harmoniously, seamlessly and effectively. Interactive simulation environments are the backbone for evaluating concepts, designs, products and advanced training systems in industry and government organisations. By bringing the user naturally inside the simulation as a task's component, users can improve their experience while task performance is simultaneously optimised. Intended outcomes include novel dynamic user-task profiling algorithms and new adaptive algorithms for user-task co-adaptation. Practical outcomes may include robust and highly effective simulation environments.Read moreRead less
Handling unreliable, uncertain and inadequate data for Intelligence led Investigation. Intelligence led investigation has been successful recently in drug and people smuggling, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, and can benefit profoundly from the techniques we will develop, in the timely management and inference from many sources and kinds of uncertain information. This work will assist in making Australia a safer and more secure country.

Intelligence led investigation has been successful recently in drug and people smuggling, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism, and can benefit profoundly from the techniques we will develop, in the timely management and inference from many sources and kinds of uncertain information. This work will assist in making Australia a safer and more secure country.
E.g., Australian Bureau of Statistics figures show that for 2004, investigations of some 35% of murders, 63% of kidnappings, and 80% of robberies are incomplete at 30 days. Terrorism investigations are harder in that usually there is no initial crime trigger for an investigation. Any assistance our tools can provide in will be of significant benefit to Australia.Read moreRead less
