Developing Medical Information System with MDA and Web Services

In this paper, we present a medical information system architecture allowing doctors to share information through the Internet. We also discuss a study on medical diagnosis process, describing the entrance and storage of the patients' information and the doctors’ interaction. Thus, we propose a medical information system architecture. We develop this architecture trough a MDA (Model Driven Architecture) approach in which the PIM (Platform Independent Model) is conforming to UML, and the PSM (Platform Specific Model) is conforming to Web Services Platform. In order to implement this medical information system, we provide metamodels for JWSDP (Java Web Services Developer Pack) and Oracle’s framework for Web Services. Thus, we provide transformation definitions from UML (Unifying Modeling Language) to Web Services, JWSDP and Oracle’s framework for Web Services.
