The TRANSFoRm Zone Model of data privacy was presented at the e-Science Workflows Workshop (Thursday 09 February 2012 – Friday 10 February 2012) in Budapest. ECRIN has been invited by EGI (European Grid Initiative) to present a research problem where workflow, cloud and grid technologies could be a solution. EGI is searching for potential users of their Grid services coming from the health research domain.
Therefore, for the e-Science workshop, Dr. Wolfgang Kuchinke presented the TRANSFoRm privacy model: here the different data access, pseudonymisation, anonymisation, aggregation and encryption operations of the data flow from the care zone to the research zone could be done by workflow systems and the grid in the background of the clinical trial process. The workshop took place in the MTA SZTAKI (Hungarian Academy of Sciences) building in Budapest.
