Specification Progam - Deliverables
The openEHR Specification Program manages the specifications and related educational materials as 'components' in two groups. 'Core' components are those covering requirements and architecture, while 'non-core' components cover various implementation technologies, as well as education. The following is an indicative list.

Architecture Overview |
|
"Read me first" document for the whole architecture. provides a summary of the reference, archetype and service models, and describes global semantics. |
|
Reference Model |
EHR IM |
UML source files; XMI; |
The information model of the openEHR EHR. |
|
|
EHR Extract IM |
" |
The information model of the EHR Extract, which is a serilialisation of content from an EHR. |
|
|
Common IM |
" |
Information model containing common concepts, including the archetype-enabling LOCATABLE class, party references, audits and attestations, change control, and authored resources. |
|
|
Data Structures IM |
" |
Information model of data structures, incuding a powerful model of HISTORY and EVENT. |
|
|
Data Types IM |
" |
Information model of data types, including quantities, date/times, plain and coded text, time specification, multimedia and URIs. |
|
|
Support IM |
" |
Support model defining identifiers, assumed types, and terminology interface specification used in the rest of the specifications. |

|
|
AOM 1.5 |
" |
AOM 1.5 draft - the AOM description now includes uniquely identified formally testable validity conditions (suitable for output by compilers), revised primitive types, improved ontology section, and constraint model extended to represent differential archetypes. |
