RIMBAA 201001 WGM Agenda

Agenda for the January 2010 WGM in Phoenix

Monday Q3

• Approval of agenda for the week (5 minutes)
• Announcements
  • RIMBAA co-chair election (today only)
• Approval of the minutes of the RIMBAA meeting in Amsterdam (5 minutes)
• RIMBAA Product presentation: Greg Kuhnen and Scott Parkey (Axolotl) to present an architectural/RIMBAA overview of the Axolotl Elysium application. (30 minutes)
• RIMBAA Product presentation: Duane Bender (Mohawk College) to present an overview of the EVEREST Toolkit which is based on collapsed MIF models. The overview will focus on RIMBAA aspects of the toolkit: the architecture of the tool, MIF collapsing, code generation, and the manipulation of collapsed RIM objects in-memory.

• Work on the deliverable(s)

Monday Q4

• Product/Tooling demonstrations
• Virtual Medical Record WG (vMR) Presentation: (Andrew McIntyre, 30 minutes)
  • Keywords: vMR overview (see Virtual Medical Record (vMR)), use of GELLO, MIF-gelloclass-UML transforms, RIMBAA aspects of the ongoing vMR effort.
  • Andrew: I aim to demonstrate how GELLO can operate over a VMR (The one we have is a basic one, but RIM like, as in the one in the GELLO standard)
  • GELLO gives the possibility of scripting RIMBA for decision support and dynamic template editing/calculated values. This can be used for Arden like functionality and decision support with GLIF (Guideline Interchange Format). I aim to demonstrate importing mif/export xmi to create GELLO classes and give a tour of the language using an interpreter we have developed.
  • RIMBAA and VMR are potentially the same animal and I would aim to show the VMR models that are currently under development and compare that with RIMBAA. I would also like to show some template based editing that uses gello to control the display dynamically and interact with SNOMED-CT in real time.
• RIMBAA Product presentation: RIMBAA Aspects of the DB2 PureXML database (30 minutes).
  • Amnon Shabo (IBM) to present: "research effort developing a data warehouse (RIMon) that is based on the RIM" (30 minutes)
  • See also these generic DB2 references: IBM InfoSphere DataStage and DB2 pureXML, Part 1: Integrate XML operational data into a data warehouse, v3 message Demo and CDA based Demo.
  • Issues on Wiki: Category:RIMBAA Issue
• Discuss impact of proposed RIM changes to RIMBAA

(MnM: Tuesday Q3)

• MnM have a hot topics quarter on Context Conduction. This impacts a RIMBAA issue: See Context Conduction in RIMBAA Applications.

(Tooling: Tuesday Q6, 19:00-21:00)

• Tooling presentations (hosted by the Tooling WG)

Wednesday Q2

• Topic: Model Driven Software Development (MDD)
  • MDD could be regarded as a best practice when it comes to RIMBAA application. What does it take to do fullblown model driven software development? PHI Technology effectively has accomplished MDD.
  • Sidebar question: What's missing in the HDF/the HL7 EAF in current v3 tooling - what are the things we'd need to have full support for MDD in HL7 v3?
• Project presentation: DSL and MDD (Charlie McCay)
  • Charlie has been working on Domain Specific Language work and will also present the relationship between HL7 and horizontal software industry methodologies (including MDD)

Thursday Q1

• Joint meeting with the ITS WG (hosted by ITS)
  • RIM ITS and
  • New ITS, code generation and other aspects
