Working across disciplines to enable society to understand, shape, and adapt to the disruptions caused by the stream of new data sources and information technologies.
The Information and Systems Engineering ECP is RMIT’s Platform for Interdisciplinary Information Innovation. The explosion in new information and communication technologies, sensors, data streams, and automation present new challenges and opportunities to society every day. The ISE ECP is connecting world-leading research and researchers from multiple disciplines with governments, businesses, and citizens in responding to challenges and opportunities that change brings.
Professor Matt Duckham, Director, RMIT Information and Systems (Engineering) ECP
We are working with government, industry, and citizens to meet the opportunities and challenges that arise from the explosion of new information technologies and data streams, always looking to the next wave of change.
Focusing on data capture, collation and analysis and telecommunications. This area encompasses:
This area focuses on modelling control and analytics of advanced and renewable energy sources, and its usage with maximum efficiency, minimum losses and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
Focusing on protecting the profusion of computational systems in our society. This encompasses all aspects of cyber security, including:
This area focuses on how to understand and exploit data.
It covers using data-focused computational and mathematical tools to optimally design, predictively model, prescriptively simulate, and intelligently control the operation of complex cyber and physical systems.
Along with harnessing existing research networks and projects to respond to COVID-19, RMIT’s Enabling Capability Platforms (ECPs) launched five cross-platform initiatives in June 2020 to address various key areas for post COVID-19 recovery.
The ISE ECP supports the following UN Sustainable Development Goals:
