Plattform for teh provision and location-independent execution of analytical methods in collaborative research

• Applicants: Professorin Dr. Dagmar Krefting; Professor Dr. Thomas Penzel
• Subject Area: Epidemiology and Medical Biometry/Statistics ; Software Engineering and Programming Languages
• Term: from 2016 to 2018
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 282611686

The aim of the project is a web-based platform on which researchers can run code, that was stored by other scientists, locally in a web browser. This enables location-independent, reproducible analysis of research data in cooperative research without the need to transfer the data itself. This type of processing is advantageous with respect to data privacy rules and in work environments with limited user permissions or with divergent hardware or software.
