Streaming video media using semantic information. Delivering video over the Internet has posted a big problem. Video files are extremely big and need hours or even tens of hours to download. This is too long to wait for the content. Much research has been attempted over low-level structures such as coding, buffer, protocol, agent and server. These techniques are either not scalable or impractical. This project aims to collaborate with CyberView on developing a high-level scheme of streaming vide ....Streaming video media using semantic information. Delivering video over the Internet has posted a big problem. Video files are extremely big and need hours or even tens of hours to download. This is too long to wait for the content. Much research has been attempted over low-level structures such as coding, buffer, protocol, agent and server. These techniques are either not scalable or impractical. This project aims to collaborate with CyberView on developing a high-level scheme of streaming video using semantic information. It breaks videos into shots and allows semantic browsing of the content. It also introduces intelligent agents with various behaviours.Read moreRead less
New Mobile Interface Techniques for Accessing Desktop Applications from Mobile Devices. The mobile data industry is a multi-billion dollar industry and is growing at a rate of seventeen percent per year. The capability to access data and applications from handheld devices is becoming increasingly vital for businesses and transforming business practices. However, while there are a multitude of software applications available for use on desktop computers these typically can't be used from mobile d ....New Mobile Interface Techniques for Accessing Desktop Applications from Mobile Devices. The mobile data industry is a multi-billion dollar industry and is growing at a rate of seventeen percent per year. The capability to access data and applications from handheld devices is becoming increasingly vital for businesses and transforming business practices. However, while there are a multitude of software applications available for use on desktop computers these typically can't be used from mobile devices due to the small form factor. In this project we will develop new mobile interface techniques and methodologies that will allow unaltered desktop software applications to be used from small-form factor mobile devices, via transforming the application interfaces.Read moreRead less
Efficient and Effective Interactive Visualization of Large Graphical Information Spaces. The expected outcome will change ways of interacting with and thinking about information processing for all information systems. As Australian companies became larger and more global, the ability to view and analyse the growing amount of company information becomes crucial to aspects as varied as trouble shooting or new ventures and eventually to the very viability of the organization itself. The expected ou ....Efficient and Effective Interactive Visualization of Large Graphical Information Spaces. The expected outcome will change ways of interacting with and thinking about information processing for all information systems. As Australian companies became larger and more global, the ability to view and analyse the growing amount of company information becomes crucial to aspects as varied as trouble shooting or new ventures and eventually to the very viability of the organization itself. The expected outcome will enhance this ability by providing an optimised global view and an effective navigation scheme of large graphical information spaces. This will attract leading international IT companies to use it for developing cutting-age tools, and will enhance significantly the capacity and international standing of Australian IT industry.Read moreRead less
