Software Defined Networking: Transforming Emergency Operations. The project aims to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Australia's emergency operations, for example, bushfire and rescue missions, by providing robust and integrated communications systems for police and the emergency services. Emergency communications systems are currently fragmented by the different technologies, creating disconnected islands of information. The project aims to provide techniques that allow multiple wire ....Software Defined Networking: Transforming Emergency Operations. The project aims to improve the effectiveness and efficiency of Australia's emergency operations, for example, bushfire and rescue missions, by providing robust and integrated communications systems for police and the emergency services. Emergency communications systems are currently fragmented by the different technologies, creating disconnected islands of information. The project aims to provide techniques that allow multiple wireless technologies to communicate seamlessly using modern software-defined networking solutions.Read moreRead less
Autoconfiguration of critical network infrastructure. In 2000, Vitek Boden hacked into Maroochy Shire's sewerage system, causing hundreds of kilolitres of raw sewage to flow into a public area, causing financial and environmental damage, and the potential for the spread of life-threatening disease. The goal of this project is to improve the security of Australia's critical infrastructure, for instance, electricity and water supply. The project’s approach is to simplify the critical bottlenecks i ....Autoconfiguration of critical network infrastructure. In 2000, Vitek Boden hacked into Maroochy Shire's sewerage system, causing hundreds of kilolitres of raw sewage to flow into a public area, causing financial and environmental damage, and the potential for the spread of life-threatening disease. The goal of this project is to improve the security of Australia's critical infrastructure, for instance, electricity and water supply. The project’s approach is to simplify the critical bottlenecks in communication between plant equipment and company management, namely, the firewall that protects the critical plant equipment from viruses and hackers. Simplification will improve transparency and hence reduce the possibility that security holes allow an incident similar to that of this incident, or worse.Read moreRead less
Internet traffic-matrix synthesis. This project will enhance research and development in Internet engineering by providing basic inputs to test and validate new ideas. The result will be a more efficient, reliable, and robust Internet.
