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
Blockchain-Enabled Federated Learning for Secure and Decentralised Learning. This project aims to develop novel blockchain-enabled federated learning techniques for secure and decentralised learning. It addresses an important and urgent machine learning problem, that is, the data useful for training machine learning models are often held by different owners who are not willing to share their data due to privacy concerns, resulting in isolated data islands. The project will result in a set of inn ....Blockchain-Enabled Federated Learning for Secure and Decentralised Learning. This project aims to develop novel blockchain-enabled federated learning techniques for secure and decentralised learning. It addresses an important and urgent machine learning problem, that is, the data useful for training machine learning models are often held by different owners who are not willing to share their data due to privacy concerns, resulting in isolated data islands. The project will result in a set of innovative algorithms that provide solutions to the key challenges in blockchain-enabled federated learning. The expected outcomes of the project will dramatically advance the frontier of machine learning and blockchain research, and have massive social and economic benefits for Australia and international communities.Read moreRead less
SenShaMart: A Trusted Internet of Things Marketplace for Sensor Sharing. This project aims to devise a novel Internet of Things (IoT) sensor sharing marketplace that permits IoT applications to discover, integrate, and pay for any IoT sensor data that is made available by other parties. The project will devise highly-scalable sensor classification, query processing, and transactions solutions and incorporate them in a pair of novel blockchains that work in tandem to securely manage all the infor ....SenShaMart: A Trusted Internet of Things Marketplace for Sensor Sharing. This project aims to devise a novel Internet of Things (IoT) sensor sharing marketplace that permits IoT applications to discover, integrate, and pay for any IoT sensor data that is made available by other parties. The project will devise highly-scalable sensor classification, query processing, and transactions solutions and incorporate them in a pair of novel blockchains that work in tandem to securely manage all the information and contracts needed by IoT applications to discover, integrate, pay, and use sensors provided by another parties. These IoT advancements will provide significant economic, environmental, and social benefits via making low-cost and immediate sensing available across the world.Read moreRead less
