Area of Science:

  • Computer Science
  • Medical Informatics
  • Web Development

Background:

  • The World-Wide Web (WWW) is a growing platform for distributed applications, especially in medical fields requiring high usability and availability.
  • Existing web technologies present limitations for developing complex, knowledge-based medical systems.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a methodology for developing knowledge-based medical applications on the web.
  • To present a development environment that supports this methodology.
  • To demonstrate the creation of complex web-based medical applications.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing an explicit domain ontology for automatic system component generation.
  • Employing the LISPWEB Common Lisp HTTP server as a central development environment.

  • Overcoming typical web limitations for developing advanced applications.

    • Main Results:

    • A methodology enabling the creation of complex web-based medical applications.
    • A development environment (LISPWEB) facilitating this methodology.
    • Successful outline of a diabetic patient management system using LISPWEB.

    Conclusions:

    • The proposed methodology and LISPWEB environment effectively support the development of high-usability, high-availability knowledge-based medical applications.
    • This approach addresses limitations of the web for complex medical system development.
    • The system for diabetic patient management serves as a practical example of the methodology's utility.
