Hi Gerard,
If there are presentation requirements, I would suggest to create UI Templates 
(as we call them) and put there the panel constructs/semantics **. That would 
be another semantic layer: RM <- AM <- OTP <- UIT
If there is some related data and there is the need to associate an 
interpretation, I would think of LINKed COMPOSITIONs, thinking about and 
information system:
- in time 0, a data set is created, e.g. a study result (maybe many 
studies/results in the same dataset)- that should be committed to the EHR- in 
time 1, data is pulled from the EHR- an interpretation is created, another data 
set is created- that should be committed to the EHR, at this time we can link 
the first COMPOSITION with this second COMPOSITION
I would prefer to do this at a COMPOSITION level because it is the committal 
unit. Thinking of a system that links entries, the user should select some 
specific entries to make an interpretation (if there are more entries than the 
ones that should be interpreted), but the interpretation itself should be in 
another COMPOSITION.
What you say about the external resource holding the PANEL definition, I would 
prefer to create a new COMPOSITION with selected entries from other 
COMPOSITIONs, and the PANEL would be just a TEMPLATE defining the COMPOSITION 
and reusing the same ARCHETYPES, and maybe another one to model the 
interpretation of the data.
Taking and step back, I guess CIMI what's to solve with structure something 
that can be solved defining a process, workflow or methodology that defines how 
to do things from the modeling perspective, instead of where to record things 
or how to display info on a screen.
Sorry if I misunderstood something, I think I don't have the full picture :)

** Just for context, I've been working with presentation of archetyped data for 
a while, we have designed very simple UI Templates for the EHRGen project, and 
in 2013 we leaded a project on the Engineering University here in Montevideo to 
improve the UI Template model and an UI generation tool for different 
technologies (we have prototypes for Web with HTML5 and XHTML, and .Net with 
XAML).Now we're writing the paper, but I can show you the raw model. And maybe 
in a couple of months I can present that to the community to be improved and 
adopted as another layer in the semantic stack of the dual model, as I said, 
just for presentation purposes (input and display of openEHR data, and why not 
13606 also!).

Dear Pablo,
As member of the En13606 Association I have access to CIMI meetings from the 
start.
The Entry in Entry (Panel) discussion is an interesting one.I agree fully that 
Panels are ad-hc constructs using Statements (ENTRIES) as components.On one 
hand they serve the purpose of collecting items for practical purposes, 
convenience, short hands, etc.On the other (for some) they serve the purpose 
that HcP?s want to attach interpretations to a collection of Statements.And 
then there are practical friends from the USA that want to collect attributes 
from the component statements in the Panel and prevent duplication of 
attributes.
In summary I see as drivers for this discussion: ad-hoc (Presentation) needs, 
adding interpreattions to a collection of statements and operational 
implemantational aspects (saving database space and retrieval times)
In my opinion there are at least three possible solutions for the Panel to be 
modeled using the present structures that the RM allows without any need of 
changing that RM.The three options are:- Use the Composition/Section mechanism 
to create ad-hoc collections of ENTRIES.- Use an ENTRY that defines the Panel 
and its attributes and refer to constituent ENTRIES using the Semantic LINK 
function of the RM- Use an external resource to hold the definition of the 
Panel and refer to constituent ENTRIES using the Semantic LINK function of the 
RM 
I do not agree with the CIMI proposal to add COMPOUND and INDIVISIBLE Entries 
to the RM, in order to follow a modeling pattern as used in Intermountain.The 
present 13606 RM is expressive enough.

Thomas,Overviewing the content on the wiki, IMO panels are an specification of 
sections.Is very weird from the modeling point of view to have a composite 
pattern (ENTRY, COMPOUND_ENTRY, ...) inside a composite pattern (CONTENT_ITEM, 
SECTION, ENTRY), is like defining a tree inside a tree in the model, but the 
initial model can also model the second, is just redundant. And IMO it doesn't 
add semantics to the model.It is also stated that "a panel is not a Section; it 
has specified and fixed [potential] content", so it could be a templated 
section maybe (?). Without that statement, is clear that a collection of 
observations is just a SECTION with slots to OBSERVATIONS (archetyped or 
templated).Also, the name "panel" makes me think of an user interface element, 
not a data structure. It would be nice to know why they need this new composite 
structure there, and if the requirement comes from structural needs or from 
information display needs.As I see it, CIMI is mixing SECTIONS and 
ITEM_STRUCTURES.OT, I tried to get closer to CIMI, but it seems difficult to 
participate from outside the EURO zone :(-- Kind regards,Eng. Pablo Pazos
