Information Management
The Information Management Group has three major research themes:
Digital Multimedia, Database Engineering and Interoperable Systems,
and Educational Technologies.
The
Centre for Digital Video Processing (CDVP) researches and develops
techniques and tools to automatically analyse and index digital video
information, and allow content-based operations such as browsing,
searching, and summarisation. The Database Engineering and
Interoperable
Systems researchers develop formal and informal models for
constructing database systems, and construct interoperable layers
between heterogeneous information systems. Information system engineering
research focuses on models and methodologies for increasing the value of
data in information-intensive and networked economies. Educational
Technology research is focused on the development and evalution of on-line
learning materials and supporting architectural infrastructures.
A report on the activities of the Information Management Group was published
in a recent edition of ACM Sigmod Record,
and is available online in pdf
format.
