+Background and Significance
+-------------------------------
+
+Neuroimaging research faces a crisis of reproducibility.
+With massive sample sizes and greater data complexity, this problem becomes more acute.
+The BIDS Apps - the software operating on BIDS data - have provided a substantial advance.
+However, even using BIDS Apps, a full audit trail of data processing is a necessary prerequisite for fully reproducible research.
+Obtaining a faithful record of the audit trail is challenging - especially for large datasets.
+Recently, the `FAIRly big framework <https://doi.org/10.1038/s41597-022-01163-2>`_
+was introduced as a way to facilitate reproducible processing of large-scale data
+by leveraging `DataLad <https://www.datalad.org/>`_ - a version control system for data management.
+However, the current implementation of this framework remains challenging to general users. 
+
+BABS was developed to address these challenges
+and to facilitate the reproducible application of BIDS Apps to large-scale datasets.

+Step 0. System requirement
+=============================================
+
+Currently BABS supports applications on high performance computing (HPC) clusters,
+specifically, Sun Grid Engine (SGE) and Slurm clusters.
+Please make sure Singularity or one of its successors
+(i.e. SingularityCE or Apptainer which BABS currently supports) is available on the cluster.
+
+Currently, BABS is **not** compatible with:
+
+* cloud-based computing platforms (e.g., Amazon Web Services [AWS]);
+* local computers where a job scheduling system or Singularity software is not installed;
+* computing nodes without job scheduling systems.
+
 Step 1. Prepare a conda environment for BABS
