Virtual workspaces in I2Cnet.

The objective of I2Cnet (Image Indexing by Content network) is to provide network-transparent content-based access to medical image archives as an Internet/intranet value-added service. Through a typical web browser, healthcare professionals interact with image collections, browse images similar to a query image, compare these images to images from other collections, and contribute their own images or comments. Specific I2Cnet services available on the World Wide Web (WWW) include image processing and feature extraction, content- and annotation-based search for images and image-related information, and authoring of annotations and image descriptions. Virtual workspaces provide the necessary mechanisms to support user sessions in I2Cnet, providing for service interoperability, persistence, and user interaction. In the course of a user session, which begins with a workspace log-in and ends explicitly with a workspace log-out or implicitly by exiting the browser, virtual workspaces maintain the common context.

Functional and control integration of an ICU, LIS and PACS information system.

The need for collaboration and data sharing among systems dedicated to individual functional areas and user groups has initiated major efforts towards the development of an integrated hospital information system. Major issues in the development of any integrated architecture that incorporates autonomous departmental systems include the development of commonly accepted interaction mechanisms, standardisation, the structure of the computerised patient record, its extensibility, as well as limitations multimedia data impose. This paper presents work done within project IHIS, a nationally funded project for the development of an integrated hospital information system that provides ICU staff with access to both the ICU assisting laboratory information system's data as well as radiological multimedia data.

The I2Cnet service architecture paradigm.

The main objective of the Image Indexing by Content network (I2Cnet) is to provide network-transparent content-based access to medical image archives based on a collection of interoperable Internet/intranet added-value services. This paper discusses I2Cnet, focusing on its service architecture paradigm. I2Cnet services such as image annotation, processing, description, and content-based retrieval, as well as the on-line collaboration service are presented. Exemplary user sessions are used to illustrate how virtual workspaces facilitate the interoperation of I2Cnet services, following the "network computer" approach to information management.
