ARB

'ARB - Architecture Review Board' This board is responsible for the architecture of the HL7 Standards. (Work in progress)

'January WGM' Our agenda for next week will consist largely of establishing a trajectory, tasks inventory and proposed schedule, and deliverables based at least in part on the following 2008 ARB goals presented by JohnQ to the HL7 BoD:

• Reorganize and establish a new ARB based on the above mission by Jan 2008.

• Create a defined set of Architecture principles associated with each HL7 product by June 2008.

• Position the ARB to work with all relevant committees of HL7 to proactively lead HL7’s adoption of HL7’s approved Architecture and establish a process for its continuous review and update by December 2008.

• Working with the TSC, define coherent and complementary static and dynamic modeling concepts in HL7s “goal” Architecture by December 2008

Working with the HL7 SOA Committee, develop SOA through HL7’s HSSP collaboration with OMG and deliver a first balloted reference architecture document to include a services delivery approach as a means of using HL7’s Standards in a SOA by December 2008.
