description In a world where the growth in digital information and systems continues to expand, researchers have access to unprecedented amounts of data. These large and complex data reservoirs require creative, innovative and scalable tools to unlock the potential of this ‘big data’. Record linkage is a powerful tool in the ‘big data’ arsenal. This thesis demonstrates the value of national record linkage infrastructure and how this has been achieved for the Australian research community.
