Secure and efficient data leak prevention on cloud. The leak of sensitive data on cloud not only poses serious threats to both public and private organisations but also puts their employees and clients at risk, e.g., economic loss and social impact. The aim of this project is to develop a secure and efficient solution that can detect and prevent leak of data in real-time.

The leak of sensitive data on cloud not only poses serious threats to both public and private organisations but also puts their employees and clients at risk, e.g., economic loss and social impact. The aim of this project is to develop a secure and efficient solution that can detect and prevent leak of data in real-time. Uniquely, the proposed research will develop novel techniques that can monitor data leak security incidents happening over time and captured by different sensors and identify correlations between historic security incidents and current data attacks. This project will significantly help to secure data on cloud for organisations in Australia and benefit fast-growing security sensitive data hosting and applications on cloud.Read moreRead less

How do we achieve flexibility and efficiency of financial services in electronic commerce environment using mobile software agents? To address this question the project will extend a system architecture based on mobile agents, which retrieve, pre-process and deliver relevant information to potentially mobile users. Two major components - information processor and agent mission processor - will be researched and developed by two PhD scholars to be supported by this application. The project results could be commercialised by the industry partner. The project is innovative in that it considers the emerging agent paradigm as an integrated distributed system in the e-commerce environment.Read moreRead less
Service orientated architectures in management of IT infrastructures. Through the utilisation of the proposed framework for building rich business service registries, Australian companies will be able to take full advantage of service oriented architectures in constructing and managing their IT infrastructure in a way that is not currently possible. Such a registry will be able to provide a coherent view of an enterprise's services and resources, and an effective way to co-relate and utilise the ....Service orientated architectures in management of IT infrastructures. Through the utilisation of the proposed framework for building rich business service registries, Australian companies will be able to take full advantage of service oriented architectures in constructing and managing their IT infrastructure in a way that is not currently possible. Such a registry will be able to provide a coherent view of an enterprise's services and resources, and an effective way to co-relate and utilise them, in a changing environment. The development of the framework will also further cement Australia's leading market position in providing service registries to enterprises world-wide, enhance Australia's international research reputation and provide an excellent training environment for young researchers.Read moreRead less
Cost effective storage of massive intermediate data in cloud computing applications. For frontier technologies, the project aims at inventing novel algorithms for data storage in cloud computing applications and hence will reduce the cost by smart information use. For sustainability, the project can help with reducing energy consumption by dealing more effectively with the growth of massive data in cloud computing facilities.
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.

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
Towards full lifecycle privacy protection on cloud. Privacy protection in user data on cloud is now at risk throughout all stages of user information lifecycle facing significant challenges such as stage adaptive protection, across-system protection, privacy invasion tracing and prediction. Current approaches mainly focus on a specific case at certain stage, hence cannot address those challenges properly by considering all stages. This project aims to systematically investigate those challenges ....Towards full lifecycle privacy protection on cloud. Privacy protection in user data on cloud is now at risk throughout all stages of user information lifecycle facing significant challenges such as stage adaptive protection, across-system protection, privacy invasion tracing and prediction.

We aim to produce a collaborative computing based approach to integrating and representing distributed renal models and resources that will enable researchers to gain access to and interact with the models and databases irrespective of format or location, permitting quantitative online exploration of new hypotheses within a variety of simulations. We will develop a portal providing an interactive 3D visualisation of the kidney as a user interface to a collection of distributed published models and extracted resources at all levels of renal physiology. The models will be hosted in France, New Zealand, Australia and the USA and be made available internationally to client users using Grid-based distributed computing systems.
