An Overview of Intersect’sGDM System Joe Thurbon Intersect
The Brief • The research activities and communities it supports • The data management and analysis issues it seeks to resolve • The types and volumes of data/metadata it will manage • The philosophy behind its design (e.g. why use semantic web technologies, if you are)
Data / Metadata • We keep • All the short reads • All the bioanalyser output • All the trimmed reads • All the tertiary analysis output ‘that works’ • All parameters used to generate all of the above • Chemistry versions • Command line parameters • Species, Locations, etc
Data Counts Data Sizes
Philosophy • Anthropology • Epistemology • History and Philosophy of Science • Bio-informatics • GDM
What does GDM Do? • Allows bio-informaticians to • Stand on the shoulders of giants (including themselves) • Record their observations • Record their experimental parameters • Manage their data • Iteratively
Demo Metadata + Data + Parents = One Results • A results corresponds to a single experiment • What experiment did I do? (steps) • What parameters did I set? (parameters) • What observations did I make? (outputs) • When did I end up with (data) • What did I start from? (parents)
