Research On Web Service-Oriented Platform For Hospital Collaborative Management

With the rapid development of information technology and the globalization of the economy, the market competition of medical industry facing becomes from the competition among medical inter-industry to the refinement of management, sustainable development capacity. In order to response the business environment of rapidly changing, each member of the medical industries has to share information, collaborative planner, deal with business processes together. The result is that the customer can get flexible, efficient support and services. Therefore, related departments within the medical enterprise business must integrate business. But, traditional technology unable to adapt to a dynamic external environment in which customer demand is changing frequently.The mechanism of the hospital information-sharing and application integration are discussed by researching the concept of service-oriented, the idea of collaborative management and Web Services technology. A collaboration management platform scheme is given that takes integration platform and service agent middleware as the core by referring to service-oriented architecture. The integration platform includes collaborative management center, public process. The collaborative management center is responsible for dealing with interaction between the integration platform and service agent middleware, including process access, private UDDI, service call interface. The public process established on collaborative management center provides management and maintenance of public process, including creating, modification et al. Service agent middleware, which is the convergence point between different application systems and integration platform, ensures the hospital internal data in a uniform, standard form to access to the integrated platform. In this way, internal data of different application system is shield and the information is security. As a result, different application system can work in a collaborative way. The platform uses the current popular open source technologies Axis to realize package and call of Web Services. Three relevant technologies are deeply researched and practiced in collaboration management platform, including service-oriented architecture, interaction between collaboration management center and service agent middleware, management and maintenance of public processes, and relative ideal results are got in the experiments.
