Decentralised Data Management for Edge Caching Systems in 5G. This project aims to deliver a suite of decentralised data management approaches to facilitate practical edge caching systems in the 5G mobile edge computing (MEC) environment. Edge caching offers great promises for Australia's post-COVID economic recovery and resilience with the ability to enable real-time mobile and IoT software applications in various domains, e.g., telehealth, online learning/working, advanced manufacturing, etc. ....Decentralised Data Management for Edge Caching Systems in 5G. This project aims to deliver a suite of decentralised data management approaches to facilitate practical edge caching systems in the 5G mobile edge computing (MEC) environment. Edge caching offers great promises for Australia's post-COVID economic recovery and resilience with the ability to enable real-time mobile and IoT software applications in various domains, e.g., telehealth, online learning/working, advanced manufacturing, etc. This project tackles new and urgent challenges in edge data storage, manipulation, maintenance, and protection with optimisation, distributed consensus, graph analytics, and cryptography techniques. The outcomes should build the pillars of edge caching systems and promote Australia's 5G software innovations.Read moreRead less
Managing private location data in a mobile and networked world: getting the balance right. Location based data are transforming the mobile service industry and this project will develop novel approaches to safeguard the location privacy of mobile individuals. This will facilitate the development of privacy-aware services which can be used for real time traffic monitoring, care for the elderly and smartphone enabled location services.
Cost-effective App Service Management in Edge Computing Environment. This project aims to deliver a framework and a suite of approaches for cost-effective app service management in the edge computing (EC) environment facilitated by the 5G mobile network. Edge computing offers great promises for rapidly advancing mobile and IoT apps in many active domains in Australia, e.g., self-driving cars, medical services, etc. Using a variety of optimization techniques and game theory, this project attacks ....Cost-effective App Service Management in Edge Computing Environment. This project aims to deliver a framework and a suite of approaches for cost-effective app service management in the edge computing (EC) environment facilitated by the 5G mobile network. Edge computing offers great promises for rapidly advancing mobile and IoT apps in many active domains in Australia, e.g., self-driving cars, medical services, etc. Using a variety of optimization techniques and game theory, this project attacks the new challenges in the deployment, delivery and adaptation of app services in the EC environment. The outcomes of this project will significantly promote new mobile and IoT apps over Australia's 5G mobile network by allowing app vendors to manage their services cost-effectively with ease in the EC environment.Read moreRead less
The Game of Being Mobile: A study of mobile gaming cultures. This is the first Australian study to examine the social uses of mobile gaming. Smartphones have put location-based and social media games in the hands of mobile users worldwide. Through ethnographic methods, this study will explore how mobile game consumption is reflecting, and being shaped by, complex social and technological practices integral to contemporary life.
