The openEHR Java Reference Implementation Project

Description

This repository contains components comprising a reference implementation of openEHR in the Java language. Eventually the components will include:

• back-end services, such as EHR service, demographic service, archetype service
• a client component, which is built in to user applications to " openEHR-enable" them, i.e. to add the capability of an archetyping/templating kernel, security, client side communication with back-end services, and so on
• as part of the client component, a "kernel". The idea of a kernel in openEHR is a small but sophisticated component which implements the reference model (RM) and archetype model (AM) in order to actually use archetypes at runtime to build and validate data. It is the key component in many openEHR services, and central to the archetype method. We are aiming for this implementation to become the openEHR reference implementation of the kernel for the Java language.
• ADL parser and serializer

Implemented openEHR Specifications 

• open EHR Reference Model: EHR, EHR Extract, Demographic, Data Types, Data Structures, Common, Support
• open EHR Archetype Model: Archetype Object Model, openEHR Archetype Profile, Archetype Definition Language

Component Descriptions

• openehr-rm Java implementation of the Reference Models (RM)
• openehr-aom Java implementation of the Archetype Object Model (AOM)
• openehr-ap Java implementation of the openEHR Archetype Profile (AP)
• adl-serializer ADL serialization from AOM, AP objects
• adl-parser Archetypes in ADL format to AOM, AP objects
• openehr-dao Data Access Object interfaces for RM
• mini-termserv A minimum terminology service required by the kernel
