A robust, format-agnostic scientific data transfer framework
In this 2016 paper published in Data Science Journal, Australian researcher James Hester provides "a simple formal approach when developing and working with data standards." Using ontology logs or "ologs" — category-theoretic box and arrow diagrams that visually explains mapping elements of sets — and friendly file formats, adapters, and modules, Hester presents several applications towards a useful scientific data transfer network. He concludes: "These ontologies nevertheless capture all scientifically-relevant prior knowledge, and when expressed in machine-readable form are sufficiently expressive to mediate translation between legacy and modern data formats." This results in "a modular, universal data file input and translation system [that] can be implemented without the need for an intermediate format to be defined."

A benchmarking analysis of open-source business intelligence tools in healthcare environments
In recent years, a wide range of business intelligence (BI) technologies have been applied to different areas in order to support the decision-making process. BI enables the extraction of knowledge from the data stored. The healthcare industry is no exception, and so BI applications have been under investigation across multiple units of different institutions.A benchmarking analysis of open-source business intelligence tools in healthcare environments
Historical Data and the New LIMS
I recently received a call from a very nice municipal laboratory director and the conversation regarding LIMS, LIMS implementation, good LIMS implementers turned towards historical data. I laughed and thanked her for the idea of this article. I really should have thought of it. With virtually every LIMS sale whether it be to a municipality, commercial laboratory or university, the issue of historical data comes up.Most laboratories purchasing a LIMS, if they are replacing an old LIMS or are buying their first, have been in operation for some time. As we are all aware, historical data generally must be kept on record for some period of time based on various regulations and is often wanted for general trending information. In many cases, that period of time is five years. So, now what?

A benchmarking analysis of open-source business intelligence tools in healthcare environments
Brandão et al. at the University of Minho in Portugal needed a practical business intelligence (BI) solution for the Centro Materno Infantil do Norte (CMIN) hospital, particularly to assist with tasks related to gynecology and obstetrics (GO) and voluntary interruption of pregnancy (VIP). In particular, the group needed "to visualize the knowledge extracted from the data stored in information systems in CMIN, through their representation in tables, charts, and tables, among others, but also by integrating DM predictive models." The group set about researching various options, documenting their process along the way. This journal article, published in late 2016, walks through the entire evaluation process, providing a glimpse of how BI applications are relevant to the healthcare industry.
