Investigating smart campus development trends in Australian universities
Smart campus is an emerging concept following the smart city research movement and is predominantly argued to be a miniature replica of the smart city providing an ideal prototype for university campus development. The smart campus concept has attracted much attention, predominantly due to the rise in artificial intelligence, internet-of-things, cloud computing and big data applications in advancing university campus operation efficiency. In recent years, Australian universities started to invest in smart campus technologies and development opportunities.ReferenceA brief background on …

Scheduling of vessel movements in channel constrained ports
International trade is heavily reliant on maritime transportation which constitutes 80% of total volume. Ports have a significant impact on the efficiency of maritime transportation, with significant delays to vessels observed in accessing or departing ports. These delays can be a result of constraints on wharf capacity, channel capacity, access to tugs and pilots, or a combination of these factors. This project will focus on the development of novel operations research techniques to optimise the efficiency of scheduling vessel movements …
