The Data and Knowledge Engineering research area is working in the area of large-scale databases and information systems. The technology is available today to send bit strings from anywhere to anywhere, and for programs running in one place to communicate with programs running in another. People are building systems that cross organisational boundaries in such areas as supply chain management and collaborative bioinformatics. These applications involve a wide range of data types, some of which are extremely complex. Our area, with its origins in the database world, is a leader in the organisation of the content and behaviour of these large-scale information systems, to provide information infrastructure for data-driven applications.

The area is the headquarter of the ARC Research Network Enterprise Information Infrastructure and responsible for the teaching of the INFS coded courses offered by the School of ITEE.
