Hi Alessandro, Let me say this in advance; none of what is written below is there to discourage you, or to express any negative remarks about your intention. I think the best thing I can do is to give you a picture of where you are now, and others may help in other ways.
You have a thesis to complete, which is what I would see as implementing an openEHR based information system, then performing some analysis to infer about a particular state (in danger or not) Based on your questions, I think you need to understand openEHR better first, before attempting to implement an actual system. If you think that you can just download some sort of installation package and start using it to enter/store/read data right away, this is not as easy as you think it would be. We'll get to this. First, you need to read openEHR documentation, to understand what openEHR is all about. You need to understand the roles of the following: ADL, Archetypes, Reference Model, Templates (probably not as important as the others for you) and the relationship between them. If you try to move forward without having at least an intermediate understanding of these, you'll certainly have issues and you will lose time. The documentation of openEHR is really good, and it is available as pdf files. It is however a dense set of documents, so don't expect to go over them in two days and figure it all out. After you fell you have an understanding of how this all works, you can start hunting for existing work. There are various attempts to deliver software that may help you out in doing what you're doing, but you'll have to work on them to see if they are actually going to help you. Tim Cook, Pablo, and I have provided software in open source form, but you need to work on these options. I for one can say that my work is still immature, and will take time to become a one shop solution to all things you'd like to do with openEHR. In short, try to establish a solid understanding of openEHR first, then move the implementation matters, or you'll lose valuable time. As you progress, you can ask your questions here, and I'm sure you'll get help from the community. Good luck!
