Abstract

This poster paper introduces a system known as CRISTAL [1] and the experience using it for medical research, primarily in the neuGRID [2] and neuGridforUsers (N4U) projects. These projects aim to provide detailed tracea-bility for research analysis processes in the study of biomarkers for Alzheimer’s disease. They have faced major challenges in managing data volumes and algo-rithm complexity leading to problems associated with information tracking, analysis reproducibility and scientific data verification. We present a working system that supports provenance data management for medical researchers.
