Research Informatics

This includes several examples of the application of computer science in support of research activity in other disciplines. Achievements include the data management, security, and metadata work on the e-DiaMoND breast cancer imaging project, the design of a distributed computing architecture for climatePrediction.net, a world-wide experiment on climate, and the automatic generation of semantically-aware information systems for clinical research, used in five cancer centres in the UK and being evaluated for use in clinical trials run by the US Department for Veterans' Affairs.
