Funded Activity Summary

A unified approach to the design of minimum length networks. This project aims to develop a new approach to designing minimum length interconnection networks by analysing their geometric structure. These networks form the basis of communication, power and transport systems. Optimising the design of such networks is a mathematically challenging problem of high computational complexity. This project will use an innovative method based on a relationship between the geometry of networks and a type of partitioning of the plane called an oriented Voronoi diagram. The outcome will be efficient new algorithms for designing physical networks, which, in practice, will ultimately lead to a reduction in network infrastructure costs for industries in Australia.
