Driving Large Scale Live Internet Broadcasting of Streaming Video. Recent experience of Internet service providers has seen a booming market demand for live Internet broadcasting services. Live broadcasting of high-profile events, such as the Live Earth concerts in July 2007 by MSN, has drawn a global audience of the order of millions of viewers across the Internet. The technology developed in this project will drastically reduce Internet bandwidth consumption for provisioning such large-scale I ....Driving Large Scale Live Internet Broadcasting of Streaming Video. Recent experience of Internet service providers has seen a booming market demand for live Internet broadcasting services. Live broadcasting of high-profile events, such as the Live Earth concerts in July 2007 by MSN, has drawn a global audience of the order of millions of viewers across the Internet. The technology developed in this project will drastically reduce Internet bandwidth consumption for provisioning such large-scale Internet broadcasting services while meeting user satisfaction with guaranteed Quality of Service. It is crucial for Australia to invest in this frontier technology since Australian service providers rely on expensive Internet infrastructure to communicate with major data hubs in other continents.Read moreRead less
Generalized Information Fusion and Scheduling for Effective Situational Awareness. Research on the generalized information fusion will lead to better surveillance,monitoring & situational awareness technologies that will significantly enhance our national security and contribute to the strategic directions set by the Nation. It will deliver generic integrated uncertainty reasoning models, algorithms and implementations and will lead to enhanced interoperation capability across multiple collabora ....Generalized Information Fusion and Scheduling for Effective Situational Awareness. Research on the generalized information fusion will lead to better surveillance,monitoring & situational awareness technologies that will significantly enhance our national security and contribute to the strategic directions set by the Nation. It will deliver generic integrated uncertainty reasoning models, algorithms and implementations and will lead to enhanced interoperation capability across multiple collaborating organizations that have surveillance and situational awareness as their prime responsibilities (defence, police and the road transport authority). It will position the nation to use its relatively small defence force to maximum effectiveness in combating terrorism, crime and natural disasters like Tsunami & Earth quakes.

Resilience Oriented Multicast for Real-time Multimedia. The current communication infrastructure market is one of the largest market segments in the world. However, it is evident that the current Internet provides limited support for a multitude of current, emerging and future services that require multicasting support (worldwide, enhanced IP service revenues are forecast to grow to $104.4 billion in 2005). The introduction of enhanced multicasting services will result in lowered input costs to ....Resilience Oriented Multicast for Real-time Multimedia. The current communication infrastructure market is one of the largest market segments in the world. However, it is evident that the current Internet provides limited support for a multitude of current, emerging and future services that require multicasting support (worldwide, enhanced IP service revenues are forecast to grow to $104.4 billion in 2005). The introduction of enhanced multicasting services will result in lowered input costs to industries and consumers with a wider choice of enhanced services. The mechanisms developed in this project will allow service providers to raise additional revenue and differentiate themselves by offering a wide range of enhanced services.Read moreRead less
