Evolvable systems for big data management in business (2017)
Presentation / Conference
McClatchey, R., Branson, A., Shamdasani, J., & Emin, P. (2017, July). Evolvable systems for big data management in business. Paper presented at Int Conf on High Performance Computng & Simulation ISGC2017, Genoa, Italy

Big Data systems are increasingly having to be longer lasting, enterprise-wide and interoperable with other (legacy or new) systems. Furthermore many organizations operate in an external environment which dictates change at an unforeseeable rate and... Read More about Evolvable systems for big data management in business.

A network-based approach to capture provenance of a policy-making process (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Javed, B., Khan, Z., & McClatchey, R. (2017, July). A network-based approach to capture provenance of a policy-making process. Paper presented at Proceedings of the 21st International Database Engineering & Applications Symposium on - IDEAS 2017., UWE, Bristol, UK

A policy-making process entails large sources of data for its creation, the tracking of which can provide a significant insight into a process and data that was being employed for its creation. However, a process employed for creating policies varies... Read More about A network-based approach to capture provenance of a policy-making process.

Using a model-driven approach in building a provenance framework for tracking policy-making processes in Smart Cities (2017)
Presentation / Conference
Javed, B., Khan, Z., & McClatchey, R. (2017, July). Using a model-driven approach in building a provenance framework for tracking policy-making processes in Smart Cities. Paper presented at Proceedings of the 21st International Database Engineering & Applications Symposium on - IDEAS 2017, University of the West of England, Bristol, UK

The significance of provenance in various settings has emphasized its potential in the policy-making process for analytics in Smart Cities. At present, there exists no framework that can capture the provenance in a policy-making setting. This researc...

Incorporating semantics in pattern-based scientific workflow recommender systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference
Soomro, K., Munir, K., & McClatchey, R. (2015, July). Incorporating semantics in pattern-based scientific workflow recommender systems. Paper presented at IEEE Science and Information Conference 2015, London, UK

Recommender systems are used to enable decision support. Using them to assist users when designing scientific workflows introduces a number of challenges. These include selecting appropriate components and specifying correct parameter values. Pattern... Read More about Incorporating semantics in pattern-based scientific workflow recommender systems.

Designing traceability into big data systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference
McClatchey, R., Branson, A., Shamdasani, J., & Kovacs, Z. (2015, July). Designing traceability into big data systems. Paper presented at 5th Annual International Conference on ICT: Big Data, Cloud and Security, Singapore

Providing an appropriate level of accessibility and traceability to data or process elements (‘Items’) in large volumes of data, often Cloud-resident, is an essential requirement in the Big Data era. Enterprise-wide data systems need to be designed f... Read More about Designing traceability into big data systems.

Traceability and provenance in big data medical systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference

Providing an appropriate level of accessibility to and tracking of data or process elements in large volumes of medical data, is an essential requirement in the Big Data era. Researchers require systems that provide traceability of information throug... Read More about Traceability and provenance in big data medical systems.

Position paper: Provenance data visualisation for neuroimaging analysis (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Arshad, B., Munir, K., McClatchey, R., & Liaquat Kiani, S. (2014, December). Position paper: Provenance data visualisation for neuroimaging analysis. Paper presented at 12th International Conference on Frontiers of Information Technology (FIT 2014), Islamabad, Pakistan

Visualisation facilitates the understanding of scientific data both through exploration and explanation of visualised data. Provenance contributes to the understanding of data by containing the contributing factors behind a result. With the significa...

Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance (2014)
Presentation / Conference
Ahmad, K., McClatchey, R., Munir, K., & Shamdasani, J. (2014, December). Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance. Paper presented at Recomputability 2014 Workshop of the 7th IEEE/ACM International Conference on Utility and Cloud Computing (UCC 2014), London, UK

The transformations, analyses and interpretations of data in scientific workflows are vital for the repeatability and reliability of scientific workflows. This provenance of scientific workflows has been effectively carried out in Grid based scientif... Read More about Scientific workflow repeatability through cloud-aware provenance.

Provenance support for medical research (2014)
Presentation / Conference
