Expert consulting services
Academic staff affiliated with CAIA
are available to provide specific expert consulting services. These
include being an expert witness, providing advice on the application of
specific technologies and short-term or long-term R&D activities
where intellectual property is confidential and owned by the client.
Agreements
are typically for a small percentage of the staff member's usual work
load. They might be a once-off service requiring one or two days work,
an ongoing service averaging a day per month for multiple months, or
something in-between.
Areas of expertise include:
- IP networking technologies
(such as security, encryption, routing, transport and congestion
control protocols, quality of service mechanisms, network measurement,
traffic modeling, etc)
- Fixed and mobile broadband access technologies (such as ATM, ADSL, WiFi, WiMax, 3G, etc)
- Energy-aware networking and computing (such as algorithms for efficient processor scheduling, etc)
Establishing an agreement:
Consulting
services are established as a "Services Agreement" contract between you
(the client) and Swinburne University of Technology (SUT). SUT's Legal
Department provides us with a standard agreement document. Specific
details of tasks, milestones (if any) and remuneration are documented
in an Annex to the standard agreement.
Although individual cases vary, please allow at least four weeks to establish a services agreement (in recognition of the usual negotiations, clarifications and authorisations that occur when establishing contracts).

If you
