[openEHR-announce] Microsoft Connected Health Framework (CHF) uses arche
The latest edition of Microsoft's Connected Health Framework - a strategy based on the idea of 'knowledge-driven health' (see http://www.microsoft.com/industry/healthcare/technology/HealthFramework.mspx) - includes openEHR (ISO 13606-2) archetypes as part of its domain knowledge architecture. There is much worth reading in this set of documents, including a good analysis of the problem space, deployment scenarios and issues, semantic and services architecture and much else besides.
<opinion>The quality of this work may surprise some used to working mostly in the open source world. To those sceptics, I would recommend a read. It can only be a good thing if domain-enabling from the openEHR knowledge-oriented health computing platform appear in both open source and commercial platforms such as Microsoft Windows.
