Linkage Projects totalling $1 932 268 covering 7 projects
The Australian National University
Controlling the forming and switching characteristics of non-volatile resistive memory devices using ion-implantation (LP120100272)
Summary: This project will develop new techniques for improving the reliability and endurance of a new class of non-volatile memory devices for use in portable electronics and embedded electronic systems. Such developments are essential for the development of next-generation devices.
Chief Investigator: Professor Robert G Elliman
ARC funding: $335 000
The Australian National University
The endangered swift parrot as a model for managing small migratory birds (LP120100448)
Summary: Endangered swift parrots use variable locations while breeding in eastern Tasmania and over winter on the Australian mainland. This project aims to develop effective conservation strategies for swift parrots and other migrants using new and long-term data and innovative technological solutions to tracking small birds across vast landscapes.
Chief Investigator: Professor Robert Heinsohn
ARC funding: $285 000
University of Canberra
Understanding and preventing workforce vulnerabilities in mid-life and beyond
(LP120100624)
Summary: This project brings together frontline service agencies with researchers from two universities to study involuntary non-participation and under-participation in the labour market by mid-life Australians. Quantitative and qualitative approaches will be used to understand pathways and outcomes so as to inform policy and practice responses.
