The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC (2008)
Journal Article
McClatchey, R. (2008). The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. Journal of Instrumentation, 3(S08004),

The Compact Muon Solenoid (CMS) detector is described. The detector operates at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN. It was conceived to study proton-proton (and leadlead) collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 14 TeV (5.5 TeV nucleon-nucleon)... Read More about The CMS experiment at the CERN LHC.

The requirements for ontologies in medical data integration: A case study (2007)
Journal Article
Hauer, T., Anjum, A., Bloodsworth, P., Branson, A., McClatchey, R., Munir, K., …Shamdasani, J. (2007). The requirements for ontologies in medical data integration: A case study. https://doi.org/10.1109/IDEAS.2007.4318120

Evidence-based medicine is critically dependent on three sources of information: a medical knowledge base, the patient's medical record and knowledge of available resources, including where appropriate, clinical protocols. Patient data is often scatt... Read More about The requirements for ontologies in medical data integration: A case study.

MammoGrid - a prototype distributed mammographic database for Europe (2007)
Journal Article
Amendolia, S. R., Bazzocchi, M., Estrella, F., Cordell, M., Solomonides, A. E., Warren, R., …Highnam, R. (2007). MammoGrid - a prototype distributed mammographic database for Europe. Clinical Radiology, 62(11), 1044-1051. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.crad.2006.09.032

This paper describes the prototype for a Europe-wide distributed database of mammograms entitled MammoGrid, which was developed as part of an EU-funded project. The MammoGrid database appears to the user to be a single database, but the mammograms th... Read More about MammoGrid - a prototype distributed mammographic database for Europe.

Experiences of engineering Grid-based medical software (2007)
Journal Article
Estrella, F., Hauer, T., McClatchey, R., Odeh, M., Rogulin, D., & Solomonides, T. (2007). Experiences of engineering Grid-based medical software. International Journal of Medical Informatics, 76(8), 621-632. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijmedinf.2006.05.005

Objectives: Grid-based technologies are emerging as potential solutions for managing and collaborating distributed resources in the biomedical domain. Few examples exist, however, of successful implementations of Grid-enabled medical systems and even... Read More about Experiences of engineering Grid-based medical software.

Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling (2007)
Journal Article
McClatchey, R., Anjum, A., Stockinger, H., Ali, A., Willers, I., & Thomas, M. (2007). Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling. Journal of Grid Computing, 5(1), 43-64. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10723-006-9059-z

In Grids scheduling decisions are often made on the basis of jobs being either data or computation intensive: in data intensive situations jobs may be pushed to the data and in computation intensive situations data may be pulled to the jobs. This kin... Read More about Data intensive and network aware (DIANA) grid scheduling.

Bulk scheduling with the DIANA scheduler (2006)
Journal Article
Anjum, A., McClatchey, R., Ali, A., & Willers, I. (2006). Bulk scheduling with the DIANA scheduler. IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science, 53(6), 3818-3829. https://doi.org/10.1109/TNS.2006.886047

Results from the research and development of a Data Intensive and Network Aware (DIANA) scheduling engine, to be used primarily for data intensive sciences such as physics analysis, are described. In Grid analyses, tasks can involve thousands of comp... Read More about Bulk scheduling with the DIANA scheduler.

Digital libraries: From process modelling to grid-based service oriented architecture (2006)
Presentation / Conference
Khan, Z., Odeh, M., & McClatchey, R. (2006, April). Digital libraries: From process modelling to grid-based service oriented architecture. Paper presented at 2nd Int. IEEE Conference on Information & Communication Technologies from Theory to Application, Damascus, Syria

Graphical Business Process Modelling Languages (BPML) like Role Activity Diagrams (RAD) provide ease and flexibility for modelling business behaviour. However, these languages show limited applicability in terms of enactment over distributed systems...

It has been cit... Read More about Pattern reification as the basis for description-driven systems.

Workflow orchestration and provenance management for neuroimaging research using CRISTAL
Working Paper
Branson, A., McClatchey, R., Shamdasani, J., Habib, I., Anjum, A., Bloodsworth, P., & Munir, K. (2012). Workflow orchestration and provenance management for neuroimaging research using CRISTAL

The workflow orchestration and traceability (or provenance) of data is essential in carrying out meaningful analyses of large scale neuroimaging datasets. In both the neuGRID and N4U projects the need for data provenance has been identified by the en...
