Design Patterns for RIM Models

This page documents a series of design patterns that provide guidance for modelers producing RIM-based information models for HL7 publications.

  • All RIM modellers should be aware of design patterns.
  • Design patterns are subject to harmonization.
  • Checking for the correct use of patterns is part of full ballot quality criteria checking.
  • Balloters are welcome to comment in ballot about whether patterns are followed.
  • Committee ballot decisions with respect to design patterns can be appealed to MnM. Final decision rests with TSC chair.

These sections should be found in the documentation of each pattern:

  • what is the pattern?
  • why is it defined?
  • when is it appropriate? (and in what design paradigm?)
    • when must/should it be used?
    • when must/should it not be used?
  • where has it been used (example)?
  • where has it not been used (example)?
  • who maintains the pattern?
  • other variations
