International Internship Summer 2008: NICTA (Sydney, AU) Caitlin Cottrill

About NICTA • National Information and Communications Technology research center of Australia • Research Themes*: – Embedded Systems – developing ‘smart products’ of the future. – Networked Systems – technologies that connect the ‘smart products’ of embedded systems together to form ‘smart networks’. – Making Sense of Data – finding ways to make sense and extract value from the growing amounts of data created by ICT systems. – Managing Complexity – developing efficient and reliable tools and processes to solve complex ICT problems. *From “About NICTA” http: //nicta. com. au/about

My Work - General • Privacy issues in Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS) • Examination of the policy and technology overlaps in ITS surveillance technologies – What are the legal requirements for privacy protection? – How can ITS technologies promote a more efficient transportation system while preserving the right to privacy in public?

Applicable Overlaps • Smart Transport and Roads (STa. R) – Research and implementation based on: • Advanced video sensors and surveillance technologies • Co-operative mobility technologies • New models for traffic control systems • Multimodal interfaces for control room systems • Measurement and management of the cognitive load on individual traffic operations managers.

My Research in Context • In the context of the STa. R project: – Reviewed amount and preciseness of data generated by surveillance cameras on the roadway – Reviewed applicable AU privacy laws and policies – Began comparative project evaluating US, AU, and UK privacy laws as they apply to ITS surveillance technologies

Associated Research Topics • Automated Number Plate Recognition (ANPR): Potential for collaboration with law enforcement • Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) applications in transport: Detection and tracking ability • Smart Cameras: Application specific information processing (ASIP)
