The Eclipse Open Health Framework
نویسندگان
چکیده
The success of open source software in other fields has generated a surge of interest in open source for healthcare. Open source initiatives not only help reduce costs for the patients and healthcare providers but also establish standards that are necessary to prevent vendor lock-in. The National Health Information Network (NHIN) project is aimed at modernizing the US Healthcare Information Infrastructure (HII) by integrating various regional health centers. Such an initiative requires standardization of protocols and data models. Eclipse Open Health Framework (OHF) is the official open source organization for HL7 and one of the leading efforts to deliver an open source, standards-based platform, for healthcare software. In this paper, we present an overview of the OHF project, describe the technologies it will provide in the near future, and discuss possible future directions for this important community.

The Generic Eclipse Modeling System
The goal of the Generic Eclipse Modeling System (GEMS) is to bridge the gap between the communities experienced with visual metamodeling tools, such as the Generic Modeling Environment (GME), and those built around the Eclipse modeling technologies, such as the Eclipse Modeling Framework (EMF) and Graphical Modeling Framework (GMF). GEMS is being developed by the Distributed Object Computing (D...
متن کاملAssessing the Use of Eclipse MDE Technologies in Open-Source Software Projects
We assess the use of several Eclipse-based Model-Driven Engineering technologies (e.g. EMF, GMF, Xtext, Sirius, ATL, QVTO, Epsilon) in open-source software development projects hosted on GitHub. We discuss our data collection and analysis methodology, and present a number of findings related to the extent to which such technologies appear to be used in open-source projects on GitHub. Our study ...

The Rodin platform for Event-B formal modelling is based on a bespoke model repository. While this approach has some advantages it also means that the platform does not benefit from the host of emerging technologies and supporting packages that are freely available for open source modelling frameworks. The Eclipse Modelling Framework (EMF) has emerged as the de-facto standard package upon which...
