SerAPI project: Service-oriented architecture and Web Services in Healthcare Application Production and Integration R&D project in the FinnWell programme of the National Technology Agency TEKES, Finland Juha Mykkänen University of Kuopio, HIS R&D Unit Health Kuopio seminar Brussels, 5 November 2004
In this presentation • Project overview • Goals and activities • Collaboration
SerAPI: ideas and goals • Enabling technologies: Web services and Service-oriented architecture (SOA) • flexibility (healthcare processes, changing work, different healthcare settings, local requirements) • web technologies, independent implementation solutions in applications, reuse • integration, reduction of overlapping data and functionality, interactivity • open technologies (applicable in heterogeneous environment), utilisation of existing infrastructure, increasing tool support • Define information system and application integration needs in healthcare, which can be addressed using software services • Define and offer service interfaces in applications and products • Define architecture, development process and supporting infrastructure for application production in service architecture • Study and select service-oriented software development methods and tools • Validate in reference implementations, applications and products • Define interfaces and mechanisms for healthcare process measurement and management • Continue interface and integration work started in the PlugIT project • especially linked to national and international Common Services standardization
SerAPI viewpoints: how to produce, provide, consume and manage services to.. • Effectively support changing processes and workflows of healthcare organizations.. • with adaptive, reusable and efficiently developed application products and integration solutions… • based on open and coherent services, architecture and efficient infrastructure
Participants • Research groups (3) • HIS R&D Unit, University of Kuopio (unit in charge) • Shiftec, Dept. of Health Policy and Management, University of Kuopio • Software engineering, Dept. of Computer Science, University of Kuopio • Software vendors (application vendors + infrastructure, 10-13) • application of services to new generation software applications and products • integration, adaptability, configuration in different settings • adaptation of applications to service archite, siirtymä- ja kehityspolut • architecture enables independence in applications for tools and implementation technologies • tools, development productivity, reuse • use of technology standards, development of healthcare standards • Healthcare organizations (hospital districts, 2-3) • specifications initiate from the needs and the users and information management in healthcare organizations • prioritisation of interfaces, conformance testing, architecture as a tool for information strategy • responsiveness to changes in processes and to local requirements • flexible and measurable support for healthcare processes • open interfaces, adaptable solutions
