Full textObservations from the Geostationary Meteorological Satellite and the Defense Meteorological Satellite Program comprised the physical data set. In parallel with this data collection activity, meteorological products from a numerical model were catalogued over the same time interval. The thesis presents comparisons of the satellite products and the model output over the study period. In part, motivated by the outcomes of this comparison, it was determined to investigate further prospects for using the array of satellite-derived products that might be more appropriate for use as a forecasting support tool. Finally, as an example, a prototype index is proposed which has potential to demonstrate the degree of development of a system. In this work, for want of a name, this index is termed the Hamilton Index (HI). It uses meteorological products derived from the microwave DMSP series of satellites and provides a temporal sequence of values of the index that are applied to monitor the developing of the TC systems in the three case studies. The meteorological variables used in the index were selected because they were accepted indicators of tropical cyclogenesis identified in the research literature. When applied to the three case studies, the HI showed a significant improvement in sensitivity to the state of development of the systems, especially when compared to the computer model data examined for the case studies.

Full textThis thesis investigates performing arts administration and management in the current economic and social environment in Vietnam and Australia within a context of globalisation. A comparative study of two major arts organisations in both Vietnam and Australia was carried out to investigate the following: why and how performing arts organisations are adapting to the changing environment; how arts leaders are adapting to changes; and whether arts managers need specific arts management training. The suitability of pertinent training packages and tertiary arts management courses from an Australian perspective are examined to determine whether these could be adapted for arts administration training in Vietnam. A qualitative case study approach was employed, using judgemental sampling. Two case studies were in Vietnam (the Vietnam National Symphony Orchestra and the Hanoi Youth Theatre), and two in Australia (the Sydney Symphony Orchestra and the Melbourne Theatre Company). Some arts administrators involved with managing these performing arts organisations were interviewed in-depth, and relevant documents, regulations and policies in the arts field were also analysed to lay a foundation for comprehending the operation and management of performing arts organisations in both countries, at a time of change. Findings indicate that globalisation and particularly economic changes are major pressures that are pushing arts organisations to adapt. Furthermore, in the context of the knowledge economy, credentials have become increasingly important for arts leaders to obtain their positions, while in order to be successful in their positions, practical experience, innovation and an entrepreneurial mindset proved to be even more essential. It is suggested that some pertinent arts management training courses in Australia could, if adapted, contribute to enhancing arts management and the entertainment industry in Vietnam, as well as providing mutual benefit to both Vietnam and Australia.

Full texteducational approaches to restraint reduction are likely to have little immediate or sustained impact. With these understandings, we are hopefully better placed to change practice in a way that does not substitute one undesirable approach for another. If this is so, the value of this thesis will lie in its influence on practice as much as in its contribution to scholarship.

Full textThe main argument of this thesis is that history curatorship in Australia does not, as yet, possess a mature critical culture. While there is a growing literature in the academy about museums, there is surprisingly little material written by practising history curators. History curatorship, as such, lacks a tradition of critical writing about its professional practice. All too often curators move from one project to the next with little time to reflect on the way they work. While some curators have written about their work the impression emerges that history curators are still struggling to define what it is they do and how they do it. In this thesis I explore the relationship between theory and practice, or praxis, in relation to history curatorship. In most exhibitions curators seek to apply a theoretical framework to the subject matter they are working on. In some instances this is a self conscious process and in others it is implicit in their work. I will explore a series of case studies from projects I have completed at the NMA to explore this relationship in my own work. As such the thesis is designed to be an interrogation of my own professional practice. Reflecting on the work I have completed provides some valuable insights into the practice of history curatorship.

Full textAustralia is one of the few countries to have legislative provisions for EIA monitoring and auditing, yet monitoring and auditing remain weak or neglected within the EIA process. This study identifies four major areas for analysis and evaluation of current procedures and practices of EIA monitoring and auditing in three Australian jurisdictions: institutional arrangements; public accountablity, transparency and community involvement; approaches and techniques; and resources and capacity. Case studies involving EIA projects and surveys and interviews with EIA practitioners were conducted in South Australia, Western Australia and New South Wales.

Full textWith the advancement of internet, telecommunication and mobile technologies, new digitally-driven business models have emerged which are disrupting traditional business models and are having a profound impact on entire industries around the world. Enterprises today are facing unprecedented challenges and are required to change their approach to provisioning and consuming technology services. Cloud computing is a key enabler for this change. Being acclaimed as a disruptive innovation, cloud computing has contributed to the success of start-ups and industry disrupters, since it allows them to provide technology services at speed and scale without the commitment and investment of costly technology infrastructure. However, despite general acceptance by organizations worldwide, cloud computing adoption by large enterprises, particularly those from highly regulated industries such as financial services, has been slow and its utilization has so far been in very limited areas. It is important to understand the factors which impact these large organizations’ decision for adopting and utilizing cloud computing, so that actions can be taken to facilitate the adoption and utilization processes. The objective of this study is to gain deep understanding of drivers and challenges associated with cloud computing adoption and utilization by large financial institutions in Australia. Through multiple case study grounded on the TOE framework, involving a major bank and a large insurance company in Australia, this study reveals a common set of drivers and challenges, which will be useful for guiding cloud adoption and utilization for companies in similar situations. It also recommends actions for overcoming challenges identified through this study.

The diplomacy of the modern 21st century has shown the changes of using the platform for public diplomacy. The application of information technology, media and Internet in order to expand information and worldwide communication in diplomacy is called digital diplomacy. In recent years, many governments all over the world, such as Australia, China, Japan, South Korea, the United Kingdom, and the United States, have used digital diplomacy in their foreign affairs. Three research questions were asked: a) What are the strengths when conducting digital diplomacy? b) What are the weaknesses when conducting digital diplomacy? and, c) What should a nation consider when conducting digital diplomacy? Through a six-week observation and monitoring of these six countries’ websites and Facebook pages, this research aimed to figure out the strengths and weaknesses when conducting digital diplomacy by using Selim’s adaptation of Cowan and Arsenault’s three layer-rubric of monologue (websites), dialogue (Facebook pages) and collaboration (website). It was revealed that all websites, in differing levels, met the criteria of monologue properties of accessibility and visibility, accuracy and credibility, authority, coverage and currency, interactivity, orientation, navigability. For dialogue, all websites, again, in different levels, met the criteria of accessibility and visibility, accuracy and credibility, authority, coverage and currency. Although frequent updates of Facebook page statuses were observed, in terms of interaction, not much interaction between the public and the governments was observed. For collaboration, only the United States has met this criterion through a website design but there was no activity observed. It was recommended that countries should continue to improve the operation of digital diplomacy, especially for the dialogue layer. Keywords: Digital Diplomacy, Public Diplomacy, Soft Power.
