Below shows a list of projects that we are actively involved in or have been. You can filter these by showing the projects which are in progress or those which are finished.
The goal is to establish a cross-disciplinary collaborative community to pursue fundamental research for developing real time emergency response systems, using the Grid, beginning with fire emergencies.
The proposed Network is motivated by the potential for synergy between two fields of technology and technique, e-Science and Digital Repositories, and the benefits that will be obtained by increasing interaction and cooperation between researchers and practitioners in these fields. This was recognised by the keynote speech of Tony Hey at the Open Repositories 2007 conference.
Developing an Ontology for Psychosis. NeuroPsyGrid is a collaborative project which aims to address key issues in data interoperability in mental health sciences by developing a shared domain ontology.
Today’s growing wealth of digital data in Europe is poorly exploited. Advances in storage, pervasive computing, digital sensors and instrumentation have led to massive growth in the volume of data collected and the number and complexity of data repositories. This growing wealth of data has an increasing potential to yield great benefits to citizens, science and business as it contains vital hidden knowledge. 
The huge increase in the volume of data produced in research and business environments in the last decade has been likened to a "data explosion". Not only is this data volumes on a massive scale, it is also heterogeneous and dynamic and in many cases needs to be shared across both organisational and geographical boundaries. Accordingly, data management is increasingly challenging to both research and business organisations alike.
edikt produces new knowledge by using computational science to extract information from vast datasets, and generate models through simulation. Researchers at the University of Edinburgh can get access to a range of computational resources.
