QualA-D: a quality aware query engine for next generation data integration systems. This project will address the growing diversity of the web/user community by developing new approaches for data integration that incorporate data quality requirements such as data currency, completeness and coverage. First-of-breed quality aware query system is expected to be developed that will assist in improving user experience and satisfaction.
Digital noticeboards for remote Aboriginal communities: bringing web 2.0 participation to non-western cultures with low English and technical literacy. Remote Aboriginal communities suffer from geographic and cultural isolation. Web 2.0 offers a solution yet is ill-suited to traditional collective cultures, those with low English and technical literacy, and the poor. This project will produce novel public web-enabled touchscreen noticeboards and table tops suited to traditional cultures.
Scalable Cross-Media Hashing for Searching Heterogeneous Data Sources. This project aims to use novel indexing and search approaches to realise the value of multimedia data. The ever-increasing availability and heterogeneity of multimedia data are calling for new approaches to search information across different media types and data sources. This project aims to enable accurate and real-time cross-media searches from billions of multimedia objects collected from various media sources by tackling ....Scalable Cross-Media Hashing for Searching Heterogeneous Data Sources. This project aims to use novel indexing and search approaches to realise the value of multimedia data. The ever-increasing availability and heterogeneity of multimedia data are calling for new approaches to search information across different media types and data sources. This project aims to enable accurate and real-time cross-media searches from billions of multimedia objects collected from various media sources by tackling the heterogeneity and scalability issues. Expected outcomes include scalable cross-media hashing techniques to capture implicit correlations existing in heterogeneous data and embed high-dimensional features into short binary codes; new binary code indexing and ranking schemes to further improve search speed and quality; and a large-scale cross-media system to evaluate methods and demonstrate the practical value.Read moreRead less
Realising the value of mobile videos with context awareness. Innovative approaches to analysing online video content and context will lead to new ways of interacting with video in the mobile world. This project will aim to develop real-time mobile systems for enabling rich and highly dynamic digital video experiences through context-aware indexing, retrieval and consumption of mobile videos.
Embedding Enterprise Systems in IoT Fog Networks through Microservices. The project will enable automated re-engineering of enterprise systems, to allow them to reused in Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. It will support efficient ways in which the core business logic of these large scale and monolithic systems can be extended into resource control and data sensing functions managed through the IoT. The project will develop a novel, fine-grained software architecture style suitable for loca ....Embedding Enterprise Systems in IoT Fog Networks through Microservices. The project will enable automated re-engineering of enterprise systems, to allow them to reused in Internet-of-Things (IoT) applications. It will support efficient ways in which the core business logic of these large scale and monolithic systems can be extended into resource control and data sensing functions managed through the IoT. The project will develop a novel, fine-grained software architecture style suitable for localised IoT execution, through microservices executing autonomously on nodes of IoT fog networks. It will develop new techniques for automated discovery of microservices from enterprise systems and the verification of future-state system execution based on current-state behavioural and other properties such as security.Read moreRead less
Re-engineering enterprise systems for microservices in the cloud. This project will enable automatic re-engineering of large enterprise applications to run in modern cloud environments as microservices. Microservices are the latest wave of service-based software, capable of exploiting the high performance and third-party integration opportunities made available through the cloud. The project will develop new techniques for analysing enterprise systems code and execution data, and making recommen ....Re-engineering enterprise systems for microservices in the cloud. This project will enable automatic re-engineering of large enterprise applications to run in modern cloud environments as microservices. Microservices are the latest wave of service-based software, capable of exploiting the high performance and third-party integration opportunities made available through the cloud. The project will develop new techniques for analysing enterprise systems code and execution data, and making recommendations for restructuring suitable parts as microservices. These microservices manage individual business objects via sets of lightweight distributed computational operations. The outcomes will support progressive evolution of an enterprise system, into distributed microservices running in public clouds, while still being integrated with "backend" systems.Read moreRead less
Legacy2Service: A Novel, Model-Driven Technique for Re-engineering On-Demand, Software Services out of Legacy Applications. The proliferation of software-as-a-service applications from "dotcom" players is raising expectations that other industries will make their critical desktop and mainframe software available as web-enabled software-as-a-service and mobile "apps". However, manually re-engineering legacy software is notoriously costly and frequently unsuccessful. This project will make it easi ....Legacy2Service: A Novel, Model-Driven Technique for Re-engineering On-Demand, Software Services out of Legacy Applications. The proliferation of software-as-a-service applications from "dotcom" players is raising expectations that other industries will make their critical desktop and mainframe software available as web-enabled software-as-a-service and mobile "apps". However, manually re-engineering legacy software is notoriously costly and frequently unsuccessful. This project will make it easier and quicker to turn stand-alone programs into online services by automating much of the process. Specifically, it will develop tools: for analysing program code to identify points to implement service interfaces; for displaying existing and new code dependencies visually; and, to help design and implement new software layers that link legacy services to the web.Read moreRead less

Summary
A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and ....A large-scale distributed experimental facility for the internet of things. This project aims to establish a large-scale, real-world experimental facility for the Internet of Things (IoT), which is currently missing in Australia, as well as in the rest of the world. The project is expected to be an essential instrument to achieve Australia’s leadership on key enabling technologies of the IoT, and to provide Australian research community with a unique platform for large-scale experimentation and evaluation of IoT technologies and services. The project will also serve as a vehicle for the education and training of Australia’s next generation of scholars and engineers, and contribute to Australia’s scientific visibility.Read moreRead less
