RIMBAA WG

Mission

The mission of the RIM Based Application Architecture (RIMBAA) Work Group is to facilitate the adoption and implementation of the HL7 version 3 RIM. The focus lies particularly on the use of the RIM for application and database design; and to a lesser degree on the implementation of messaging interfaces.

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 and databases. This has the advantage that it saves time and resources by not having to design new one-off application frameworks and databases.

Charter

The RIMBAA Work Group will:

  • provide a joint forum for HL7 members who are interested in, planning to create, RIM based applications and/or messaging interfaces. We will present the various approaches that have already been implemented though out the world and compare our experiences.
  • create a best practices document which describes the approaches to take when one designs a new RIM based application, as well as the situation in which one or more of the layers of an application are legacy and can not be re-designed.
  • support third parties in the creation of, and maintenance of, software toolkits that support the development of RIM based applications.

Formal Relationships With Other HL7 Groups

  1. The RIMBAA Work Group will work with the Tooling Work Group to share experiences and best practices in those areas where the Tooling Roadmap overlaps with the scope of RIMBAA.
