Addressing the Security Challenges of Big Data Analytics in Healthcare Research

Big data and associated analytics have the potential to revolutionize healthcare through the tools and techniques they offer to manage and exploit the large volumes of heterogeneous data being collected in the healthcare domain. The strict security and privacy constraints on this data, however, pose a major obstacle to the successful use of these tools and techniques. The paper first describes the security challenges associated with big data analytics in healthcare research from a unique perspective based on the big data analytics pipeline. The paper then examines the use of data safe havens as an approach to addressing the security challenges and argues for the approach by providing a detailed introduction to the security mechanisms implemented in a novel data safe haven. The CIMVHR Data Safe Haven (CDSH) was developed to support research into the health and well-being of Canadian military, Veterans, and their families. The CDSH is shown to overcome the security challenges presented in the different stages of the big data analytics pipeline.

Plant genomic resources at National Genomics Data Center:assisting in data-driven breeding applications

Genomic data serve as an invaluable resource for unraveling the intricacies of the higher plant systems,including the constituent elements within and among species.Through various efforts in genomic data archiving,integrative analysis and value-added curation,the National Genomics Data Center(NGDC),which is a part of the China National Center for Bioinformation(CNCB),has successfully established and currently maintains a vast amount of database resources.This dedicated initiative of the NGDC facilitates a data-rich ecosystem that greatly strengthens and supports genomic research efforts.Here,we present a comprehensive overview of central repositories dedicated to archiving,presenting,and sharing plant omics data,introduce knowledgebases focused on variants or gene-based functional insights,highlight species-specific multiple omics database resources,and briefly review the online application tools.We intend that this review can be used as a guide map for plant researchers wishing to select effective data resources from the NGDC for their specific areas of study.

Helping the Consumers and Producers of Standards,Repositories and Policies to Enable FAIR Data

Thousands of community-developed(meta)data guidelines,models,ontologies,schemas and formats have been created and implemented by several thousand data repositories and knowledge-bases,across all disciplines.These resources are necessary to meet government,funder and publisher expectations of greater transparency and access to and preservation of data related to research publications.This obligates researchers to ensure their data is FAIR,share their data using the appropriate standards,store their data in sustainable and community-adopted repositories,and to conform to funder and publisher data policies.FAIR data sharing also plays a key role in enabling researchers to evaluate,re-analyse and reproduce each other’s work.We can map the landscape of relationships between community-adopted standards and repositories,and the journal publisher and funder data policies that recommend their use.In this paper,we show how the work of the GO-FAIR FAIR Standards,Repositories and Policies(StRePo)Implementation Network serves as a central integration and cross-fertilisation point for the reuse of FAIR standards,repositories and data policies in general.Pivotal to this effort,the FAIRsharing,an endorsed flagship resource of the Research Data Alliance that maps the landscape of relationships between community-adopted standards and repositories,and the journal publisher and funder data policies that recommend their use.Lastly,we highlight a number of activities around FAIR tools,services and educational efforts to raise awareness and encourage participation.

Renewable and Nonrenewable Energy Flow Resiliency for Day-to-Day Production and Consumption

Energy resilience is about ensuring a business and end-use consumers have a reliable,regular supply of energy and contingency measures in place in the event of a power failure,generating a source of power such as electricity for daily needs from an uninterrupted source of energy no matter either renewable or nonrenewable.Causes of resilience issues include power surges,weather,natural disasters,or man-made accidents,and even equipment failure.The human operational error can also be an issue for grid-power supply to go down and should be factored into resilience planning.As the energy landscape undergoes a radical transformation,from a world of large,centralized coal plants to a decentralized energy world made up of small-scale gas-fired production and renewables,the stability of electricity supply will begin to affect energy pricing.Businesses must plan for this change.The challenges that the growth of renewables brings to the grid in terms of intermittency mean that transmission and distribution costs consume an increasing proportion of bills.With progress in the technology of AI(Artificial Intelligence)integration of such progressive technology in recent decades,we are improving our resiliency of energy flow,so we prevent any unexpected interruption of this flow.Ensuring your business is energy resilient helps insulate against price increases or fluctuations in supply,becoming critical to maintaining operations and reducing commercial risk.In the form short TM(Technical Memorandum),this paper covers this issue.

An Approach for Content Retrieval from Web Pages Using Clustering Techniques

Mining the content from an information database provides challenging solutions to the industry experts and researchers, due to the overcrowded information in huge data. In web searching, the information retrieved is not an appropriate, because it gives ambiguous information for the user query, and the user cannot get relevant information within the stipulated time. To overcome these issues, we propose a new methodology for information retrieval EPCRR by providing the top most exact information to the user, by using the collaborative clustered automated filter which makes use of the collaborative data set and filter works on the prediction by providing the highest ranking for the exact data retrieved. The retrieval works on the basis of recommendation of data which consists of relevant data set with highest priority from the cluster of data which is on high usage. In this work, we make use of the automated wrapper which works similar to the meta crawler functionality and it obtains the content in the semantic usage data format. Obtained information from the user to the agent will be ranked based on the Enabled Pile clustered data with respect to the metadata information from the agent and end-user. The information is given to the end-user with the top most ranking data within the stipulated time and the remaining top information will be moved to the data repository for future use. The data collected will remain stable based on the user preference and works on the intelligence system approach in which the user can choose any information under any instances and can be provided with suitable high range of exact content. In this approach, we find that the proposed algorithm has produced better results than existing work and it costs less online computation time.

Energy Driven by Internet of Things Analytics and Artificial Intelligence

Developing an integrated and intelligent approach to securing the ITE(information technology environment)is an emergent and evolving concern for every organization and consumer entity during the last few decades.Major topics of concern include“SI”(security intelligence),“D-DA”(data-driven analytics),“PE”(proven expertise),and“R-TD”(real-time defense)capabilities.“DRBTs”(dynamic response behavior types)include“incident response”,“endpoint management”,“threat intelligence”,“network security”,and“fraud protection”.The consumer demand for electricity as essential public access and service is indexed to population growth estimates.Consumer-driven economies continue to add electrical consumption to their grids even though improvements in lower-power consumption and higher design efficiencies are present in new electric-powered products.Dependence on the production of electrical energy has no peer replacement technology and creates a societal vulnerability to targeted public electrical grid interruptions.When access to,or production of,electrical power is interrupted,the result is a“Mass Effect”every consumer feels with equal distribution.Electric grid security falls directly into the levels of authorized,and unauthorized,access via the“IoT”(Internet of Things)concepts,and the“IoM2M”(Internet of Machine-to-Machine)integration.Electrical grid operations that include production and network management augment each other in order to support the demand for electricity every day either in peak or off-peak,thus cybersecurity plays a big role in the protection of such assets at our disposal.With help from AI(artificial intelligence)integrated into the IoT a resilient system can be built to protect the electric grid system nationwide and will be able to detect and preempt Smart Malware attacks.

A Novel Chinese Polar Knowledge Repository Based on Polar Data-Sharing Ontology

In order to archive and utilize the information from Chinese polar expeditions to the greatest extent, we design a novel knowledge repository, in which an automatic query model based on neural networks is proposed and a data call trigger is established to keep data consistent between polar data-sharing platforms. And in this repository, anybody can make contributions to the repository by creating or updating entries with version control and an authority control mechanism. In this paper, the data sources,data processes and network structure of this repository are described, and the keywords extraction and decision support operation are detailed. The analysis of this design＇s feasibility and applicability indicates that this knowledge repository is open, sole and authoritative for Chinese polar expeditions.

Enterprise service bus and standard based hospital integration platform and its application research

For healthcare organizations, there is increasing needs to share data among applications to deliver qualitypatient care. It is a key for successful diagnosis and treatment to view accurate and up-to-date patient data in a single information dashboard in real time. But the fact is that many hospitals and healthcare providers today are struggling with legacy system or internally developed systems that cannot easily scale to support new interfaces; the plethora of inflexible point-to-point interfaces make changing in one system deleteriously impact other systems; some systems could not support information sharing; and the standards followed by different systems are not compatible to each other. This is making it increasingly difficult to meet the rapidly changing and demanding of healthcare service.
