* * I attended the IHTSDO meeting just finished in Copenhagen. Things look pretty good for where SNOMED CT is going generally - the RF2 technical infrastructure seems relatively well designed. There is a lot of activity in content modeling, the IHTSDO workbench and many other areas relevant to openEHR. Converely, I believe openEHR will be very important to make SNOMED CT work in many places, since it will be via archetypes, templates and associated ref sets that information systems will be able to connect to terminology in a disciplined way. I believe that ref sets are the future of SNOMED CT (and any terminology for that matter) in use in real systems.
I was asked to present a view from openEHR about 'terminology binding', i.e. connecting terminology and information models. My presentation is on this page http://www.openehr.org/wiki/display/term/Terminology+Binding or see the following direct links: * PDF - http://www.openehr.org/wiki/download/attachments/5997267/openEHR_term_binding_IHTSDO_april_2010.pdf * PPTX - http://www.openehr.org/wiki/download/attachments/5997267/openEHR_term_binding_IHTSDO_april_2010.pptx I hope this is useful. I will continue to document IHTSDO-related thoughts on the openEHR wiki, and I encourage others to do the same. - thomas beale -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
