Autonomous Resilient Agents is a project funded by the CSIRO and Agent-oriented Systems group as part of the Science and Industry Endowment Fund. It concerns the implementation of team-based distributed systems to support the deployment of robust and resilient autonomous systems. The field robotics environment is both dynamic and unpredictable where communications may be intermittent, and availability cannot be relied upon. Such systems should ideally work in a coordinated, team-based manner with vehicles or other sub-systems of varying capabilities that collectively work to achieve common goals. This project runs to May 2021.

Generic Athena is a commercial project funded by the Defence Science and Technology Organisation (DSTO) that runs to May 2020. The focus of this work is in extensions and refinements of a scheduling system for training and tracking of resource personnel required by the defence forces of Australia. This will provide an Australia-wide system that can support current and future training needs and demands of defence personnel in the army, navy and airforce. This work also includes support for mobile applications.
