Minutes

  • Oasis Service Description Model
  • NCI Service Taxonomy
  • CBDI Taxonomy of Services
  • Discussion of the HITSP / NHIN services, and the use cases for architecture itself. JC - the problem is not a system architecture, it is enterprise in scope and we need enterprise architecture. JK - discussed the NCI service taxonomy's assumption as a way to get buy in from organizations (using use cases, and describing dependencies for those use cases that are specified as services). EL - HITSP / NHIN really needs the architecture offerings from the HL7 ArB, including principles, taxonomy, service offerings, contract specifications.
  • Principles
    • Initial cut at principles:
      • Virtualization
      • Aggregation / Composition
      • Unity of Purpose
      • Technology Independence
      • Service Specification should support a Layered Conformance Policy
    • Each Service Specification (each service has many service specifications) must belong to a conformance layer. Each conformance layer must have rules associated with it.
    • each service should also belong to the HL7 taxonomy
    • use Should Shall May
    • We should follow the Oasis Format (Statement, Rationale, Implications)
    • Additional Principles (from other sources - Oasis)
      • Separation of Concerns should be added
      • Parsimony should be added to unity of purpose
      • RR suggested looking at soaprinciples.com
      • AMS - This architecture is not a replacement for or an alternative to XXX - it encompasses, supports, and facilitates the stuff that we already have. The Health Domain Enterprise domain needs services in conjunction with the other components, and HL7 needs to take a leadership position. There is an aculturation issue.
  • Lunch
  • Conformance and Compliance - A profile is a set of constrained assertions that force a yes | no answer to the question "are you compliant to ..." Conformance Assertions that are present in the services specs are equivalent to the conformance profile (HL7). Each viewpoint makes a set of assertions as part of its specifications. Conformance statements historically further constrain the conformance assrtions to demonstrate the degree of compliance of an implementation.
