Adelaide's O-BahnIn 2003 the Adelaide City Council and the University of South Australia formed a 3 year partnership to develop innovative approaches to manage the city's road transport network and measure its performance.  Leading edge expertise was used by UniSA to construct a model of the transport network and develop advanced technology 'add-on' solutions to inform transport policy by predicting network capacity, driver behaviour and the environmental impact of CBD growth.  The model has successfully predicted changes to traffic flows caused by construction of new light rail service through the heart of the city, changes to traffic circulation around Victoria Square and the city's most eminent cultural and institutional boulevard - North Terrace.

The ISST has performed a number of important tasks for the Mawson Lakes Economic Development Project being developed by Delfin Lend Lease in partnership with the South Australian Government's Land Management Corporation. The Mawson Lakes project has an objective to set new standards for sustainable development.  As such its water recycling system and energy efficient housing are key features of the project.  The University of SA, ISST or it's predecessors have been a key player in the innovative features in providing research and practical advice to enable these initiatives to be successfully implemented. We have found ISST's work to be timely, efficient and of high quality.

The Orlando Wyndham Group is adding value to its business through a working relationship with UniSA.   The outcome for the grape sampling device is really to add to our ability to analyse raw material as we receive it ... it's going to add substantial value to our business and what we can do with the grapes coming in the gate, what their composition is and how they should be treated within the winery.  ISST will definitely be among the first people that we'll call to come and help us in the future.

We have had the pleasure of working with the ISST team for over 10 years in the development and application of complex mathematics and computational techniques to solve important railway scheduling and train energy optimisation problems.  We have successfully applied the work of ISST in commercial applications now available on the market.

My UniSA studies provided me with excellent technical and project management skills.  Surprisingly, even though I changed industries when I left university many of the skills that I had gained are still highly relevant to my current employer.
