RIMBAA

The RIM Based Application Architecture working group (RIMBAA) serves as a focus for those who are interested in using RIM based information models for application and database design, and to promote the development of HL7 Version 3-compliant applications. The benefits of RIM based applications are not limited to accepting and creating ITS platform specific RIM based messages and documents. The RIM can be used as a universal model for designing both applications (Model Driven Software Development, MDD) and databases. This has the advantage that it saves time and resources by not having to design new one-off application frameworks and databases.
