Abstract :
Early identification, complete and correct designing of services are fundamental for any successful e-Business solution in present-day. However, multiparty collaborative environment offering very many diverse services in healthcare context has resulted not only difficulties in requirement elicitation but also multitude of burdens during e-Health service designing and development. Yet another facet that hinders achievement of successful e-Health service deployments is the unavailability of framework that could facilitate systematic alignment between higher level strategic and motivational requirements with lower technical level realizations. This research work is a partial contribution in an attempt to get established a framework that could facilitate successful e-Health service deployment while overcoming afore mentioned deficiencies, ensuring semantic and technical service interoperability. A value object classification schema and associated Information Referencing Models has been introduce in this paper that can be serves as theatrical basis for healthcare e-Service Solution industry. The advantage of the proposed modeling guidance is traceability between higher level motivational requirements and subsequent lower level value & service modeling layers. Draft modeling of an application area based on the proposal has been briefly demonstrated in order to illustrate the potential applicability of the proposed framework.
