University of Tasmania

Marine ICT Research

Overview


Marine science is recognized as a major research strength within the University and within Tasmania generally. The marine science community is now moving towards a greater use of quantitative methods in their discipline and so the need for advanced computing techniques for marine science applications is increasing rapidly. Skills available within the School of Computing & Information Systems, in the fields of digital image analysis, machine learning, agent-based simulation, distributed computing, internet monitoring and ubiquitous computing, as well as international leadership in the development of digital repositories, place the School in an excellent position to contribute to the already high profile of the University in the marine sciences.
