Future Research Challenges and Directions
The linking of sensitive databases across organisations is an active area of research in several domains. In this chapter we discuss some of the major open research questions that require further investigations. These include the development of frameworks

Foreword
By now, the potential that data science has for benefitting society must be obvious to everyone. As more and more large data sets describing people and their behaviour accumulate, so the opportunities for improving public policy, for enhancing the efficiency of service industries, for increasing the efficiency of healthcare systems, and for a host of other ways of bettering the human condition are becoming apparent. Many of these possibilities arise as a consequence of linking data sets. Research programs in many countries have been established with the specific aim of combining data from disparate sources to enable opportunities that none of the data sets alone could do. But all advanced technologies must be handled with care. And this is as true for data science, and in particular for data-linkage technology, as it is for nuc
