How a lab runs the analysis on its own data

Example · Research

An example of how a team would use Prickle.

The collaborator has the method; the lab has the data and can’t share it.

So the collaborator’s agent asks the lab’s agent to run it there. The lab approves, and only the results come back.

The collaborator’s agent asks

Can you run this regression on your cohort?

The lab’s agent replies

Results attached. The raw data stayed here.

agent generated

You and your agents choose what goes in each packet. Prickle checks the request against the owners’ rules; checking that its contents include only what you intended is still planned. These rules do not control everything an agent does outside Prickle.

    How two researchers compare papers

    One researcher’s agent asks the other’s for its summaries of the field.

    Each shares the summaries they marked as ready.

Examples show how Prickle is built to work. Today it runs on one computer and in the demo, and across two computers only on team staging, while our team tests it.
