Reconciling Activity-centric and Business Object-centric Approaches to Business Process Modelling. Business process models are a fundamental instrument for analysing and automating the operations of organisations. At present, the space of business process modelling techniques is characterised by fragmentation with various approaches striking different tradeoffs. Two major families of approaches can be distinguished: activity-centric and business object-centric. These approaches correspond to com ....Reconciling Activity-centric and Business Object-centric Approaches to Business Process Modelling. Business process models are a fundamental instrument for analysing and automating the operations of organisations. At present, the space of business process modelling techniques is characterised by fragmentation with various approaches striking different tradeoffs. Two major families of approaches can be distinguished: activity-centric and business object-centric. These approaches correspond to complementary viewpoints. We see great potential in creating a level of integration between them. Accordingly, the project will investigate the relative expressiveness of these approaches, identify incompatibilities and synergies, and design model transformations. This will establish a foundation for next-generation business process modelling tools.Read moreRead less
Mining Distributed, High-Speed, Time-Variant Data Streams. With the high-speed and large volume of data generation, the data mining research community is facing an unprecedented challenge to provide instant data mining outcomes for prompt usage. Getting access to derived information from multiple, dynamically changing data is vital for many business, science and security services. Extended networks of sensors and other devices assist many environments with data collection that should be correlat ....Mining Distributed, High-Speed, Time-Variant Data Streams. With the high-speed and large volume of data generation, the data mining research community is facing an unprecedented challenge to provide instant data mining outcomes for prompt usage. Getting access to derived information from multiple, dynamically changing data is vital for many business, science and security services. Extended networks of sensors and other devices assist many environments with data collection that should be correlated and processed towards discovery of dependencies, regularities and patterns. Data mining tools, especially of this new generation, are capable of dealing with data streams, and they offer great benefits for users from many industry sectors; defence, health management, security, commerce and science.Read moreRead less
Agent-Based Simulation - New Approaches for Design and Prototyping. The project will improve the capacity of Australian companies to bring products to market more quickly where there are complex trade-offs between interacting actors. The simulation guidelines will help understand interaction in complex systems and the identification of important factors in the air traffic domain.

The simulation guidelines will help understand interaction in complex systems and the identification of important factors in the air traffic domain. The research will also preserve the leading position of Australian technology for high quality simulations of air traffic control. The new methods will help Australian SMEs using agent technology, of which there are several.Read moreRead less
Escaping the concurrency trade-off: a new approach to enterprise software. Enterprise software manages the operations of all business and government organisations. Designers of this often rely on their intuition or luck, by using high-performance database facilities whose correctness is not guaranteed. This project will show designers how to use these facilities while still having the assurance that the data will not be corrupted. This will improve the quality of the data used by Australian ent ....Escaping the concurrency trade-off: a new approach to enterprise software. Enterprise software manages the operations of all business and government organisations. Designers of this often rely on their intuition or luck, by using high-performance database facilities whose correctness is not guaranteed. This project will show designers how to use these facilities while still having the assurance that the data will not be corrupted. This will improve the quality of the data used by Australian enterprises, and thus improve their operations. Australian software designers will also benefit, as they will be able to produce software that combines high performance with assurance that concurrency errors will not occur.Read moreRead less
Varying similarity metrics in indexing and retrieving high dimensional data. Many applications require varying distance metrics by putting a weight on different dimensions. Taking an example in visual information retrieval, due to the subjective nature of similarity measurements, the distance metrics can vary between different users. The main problem with k nearest neighbour (k-nn) searches using weighted metrics in a high dimensional space is whether the searches can be done efficiently, since ....Varying similarity metrics in indexing and retrieving high dimensional data. Many applications require varying distance metrics by putting a weight on different dimensions. Taking an example in visual information retrieval, due to the subjective nature of similarity measurements, the distance metrics can vary between different users. The main problem with k nearest neighbour (k-nn) searches using weighted metrics in a high dimensional space is whether the searches can be done efficiently, since in an arbitrary distance metric the intersection between the k-nn sphere and the bounding envelopes of nodes in an index tree cannot be easily calculated. This project aims to seek a novel solution. It will create a great impact on and have many applications in high dimensional visual information retrieval, instance-based learning, complex analysis, non-parametric density estimation, etc.Read moreRead less
