Models and Patterns: getting tech and clinical people together

Tech review of clinical models

  • technical patterns approach for tools
    • patterns workshop for clin community?
  • how do tech people get involved in reviews
    • Ian; join existing reviews (adopt an archetype...)
  • Patterns
  • Cambio - 22 examples in Psych; collection of Archetypes, GDLs, etc; 100s overall - Rong

Ian: avoid another long tech review round; better to have tech people inside the same review.

Dissemination

Sharing - should be using Github for CKM; how to synchronise e.g. DIPS own Git repos v CKM

Rong: should always use Github as the sharing mechanism and allow e.g. pull requests etc

Package Management

Dependency management - not handled properly; need equivalent of NPM, Maven etc;

Also need better designed packages and release concept.

Problem of channels from Vendor / customer environments to openEHR

Opinions:

  • Ian: find a way for companies to publish own templates and archetypes.
  • Erik: no/poor channel for translations back to int'l CKM.

Erik: could companies use forks of CKM-mirror and paste in their own archetypes in sub-folders?

Erik: can we find a way for companies to easily publish their own models, with 0 effort?
