The paper provides an architectural overview followed by a description with an example of CRT (cathode ray tube) screen and print format design and coding and an examination of a data collection list to demonstrate the power of that facility.Abstract:
Application development productivity is a broad-based concern. A system answering this concern is the IBM Health Care Support/ DL/I-Patient Care System announced by IBM in late 1977. The system is of general importance because its application development system architecture is not application specific and thus can be used for the rapid development of many types of on-line systems. It has an elegant simplicity, and it uses the standard facilities of such operating system components as CICS/VS and DL/I. The application productivity has been clearly and successfully demonstrated in the real working environment of the Dallas County Hospital District (Parkland Memorial Hospital) and other sites. The paper provides an architectural overview followed by a description with an example of CRT (cathode ray tube) screen and print format design and coding and an examination of a data collection list to demonstrate the power of that facility.read more

Analysis of the online order entry process in an integrated hospital information system
Hisakazu Ogura,Etsuro Sagara,Koji Yamamoto,Hiroshi Furutani,Yasuhiro Kitazoe,Yoshihiko Takeda +5 more
TL;DR: The distribution of entry duration of prescription, laboratory and radiology orders by physicians was analyzed and it was found that the order entry is a completely random event and the entry process consists of the two Poisson processes; the quick process and the slow process.

Graphical representation and analysis of information systems design
TL;DR: One premise of this paper is that the requirements shoul d be expressed in the same notation as the high-level design of the system, which simplifies checking whether the design is meeting those requirements as it is being developed.
