dc.description.abstract | Advances in information technology during
the past decade have resulted in a proliferation of clinical
information systems dedicated to di erent user groups
and clinical functional areas. This, in turn, has created
the need for hospital-wide management and integration
of information, and has triggered major e orts towards
the development of integrated hospital information
systems as a building block of integrated regional
healthcare networks. The diversity of hospital organiza-
tions, the complexity of clinical protocols and proce-
dures, as well as the di erent preferences of various user
groups make it extremely di cult for a single monolithic
information system to e ectively serve the needs of an
entire healthcare organizational structure. Thus, infor-
mation and telecommunications systems must primarily
provide the infrastructure to support the e ective inte-
gration of distributed and heterogeneous components,
ensuring overall integrity in terms of functional and
information interworking. This approach i.e., the inte-
gration of heterogeneous autonomous distributed sys-
tems, to developing and managing regional healthcare
networks ensures the transfer and integration of consis-
tent information between healthcare facilities, without
imposing constraints on the operation of individual
clinical units. This paper presents the results of an
ongoing e ort for the design and implementation of an
architecture based on digital library technologies, for the
provision of user-oriented telematic services in a regional
healthcare network. Speci®cally, it addresses issues
related to the provision of user-oriented services, trans-
parent to the needs of di erent user groups and the
requirements of speci®c tasks, based on: a) meta-infor-
mation for the creation of an information infrastructure
for the regional healthcare network which is, e ectively, a
multimedia distributed digital library, b) intelligent
information retrieval strategies to selectively retrieve
information from multimedia data, c) agent-based tech-
nologies for e ective service delivery adapted to the
current user needs and the task at hand, and d) middle ware services that explicitly reveal not only the charac-
teristics of the information sources, but also address the
context of speci®c telematic services, through appropriate
mediation mechanisms. | el_GR |
