New Directions in Mining Complex Spatial Relationships in Large Scientific Databases. International and Australian organizations are investing in large projects involving the collection of terabytes of scientific data. The Anglo-Australian Galaxy Redshift Survey in eastern Australia has obtained data for a quarter of a million galaxies.

International and Australian organizations are investing in large projects involving the collection of terabytes of scientific data. The Anglo-Australian Galaxy Redshift Survey in eastern Australia has obtained data for a quarter of a million galaxies. Similarly the Tropical Ocean Global Atmophere(TOGA) program is being expanded to collect data from the equatorial pacific region which will help better understand the El Nino/Southern Oscillation Cycle. We are developing powerful spatial data mining tools which will go a long way in finding potential nuggets of useful information in these large databases and help Australian and international scientists hypothesise new theories to explain the underlying phenomenon.Read moreRead less

Cost efficient scheduling of big data application workflows on cloud through information correlation. Information correlation in and between big data application workflows scheduled on the cloud can help to significantly reduce overall scheduling costs by avoiding the execution of many correlated workflow activities. This project aims to systematically investigate such correlation for cost efficient scheduling. The expected outcomes are: establishing information correlation based scheduling rese ....Cost efficient scheduling of big data application workflows on cloud through information correlation. Information correlation in and between big data application workflows scheduled on the cloud can help to significantly reduce overall scheduling costs by avoiding the execution of many correlated workflow activities.

As a large branch of big data processing, big graph processing is becoming increasingly important in both industry and academia, due to the large expressive power of graphs to model complex relationships among entities in the real world. This project will find highly scalable solutions to process big graphs using MapReduce. MapReduce is a big data processing framework that is shown to be scalable to handle structured query language-styled queries but is still open when it is used to process big graphs. Most of the problems studied in this project are fundamental graph problems that are not well studied in MapReduce. This project will enhance big graph processing which is beneficial for both science and society.Read moreRead less
