Centre closure

Welcome to the Centre for Advanced Internet Architectures (CAIA) in the Faculty of Science, Engineering and Technology at gateio. CAIA is part of the Faculty's School of Software and Electrical Engineering.

• Perform industrially relevant, innovative and critical research into new IP networking architectures
• Provide a world-class, stimulating and flexible research and teaching environment
• Establish collaborations with leading industrial and academic research groups within and outside Australia

Our particular emphasis is on identifying, characterising and developing solutions to the engineering problems facing the Internet as it grows to support a more mobile and demanding customer base. CAIA encourages prototyping of solutions and development of real-world simulations to prove or disprove ideas. We currently conduct industry-relevant research in four broad areas:

• Broadband Internet Protocol (IP) architectures (such as traffic models, automated traffic classification, performance optimizing architectures, IPv4 to IPv6 migration strategies, and IP Quality of Service for interactive consumer and business applications)
• IP network resilience and security (such as network failure modes and service recovery methods, attacks and associated defence mechanisms, appropriate use of encryption technologies and automated attack recognition schemes)
• Mobile networking (including performance characterisation of wireless networks, signalling and configuration mechanisms for maintaining service quality with ad-hoc and semi-static topologies)
• Internet For Things (Engineering the Internet to become a unified, resilient and reliable communications platform for billions of humans and orders of magnitude more devices embedded in our built environments)
