The ART-DECOR Expert Group and IHE Europe recently signed an Memorandum of Understanding to establish and develop the collaboration between the two groups in order to jointly promote the adoption of respective and complementary open-source offerings and evolve them in a synergistic way.
The agreement applies specifically to the ART-DECOR Framework and the IHE Gazelle ObjectsChecker. The vision is to engage the broadest group of eHealth projects and vendors around the world to adopt and use the combination of the two tools in order
- to facilitate the creation and consistent standardized documentation of CDA based specifications and
- to support rigorous compliance validation and testing.
The overall goal is to provide these projects with easy-to-use efficient combined tooling that enhance the quality of their implementations and information exchange. For more information see art-decor.org and www.ihe-europe.net.
For further information contact Dr Kai U Heitmann from the ART-DECOR Expert Group (info@kheitmann.de) and/or Eric Poiseau from IHE Europe (eric.poiseau@inria.fr).
OpenHUB statistics for ART-DECOR 1.0 in a Nutshell: ART-DECOR...
- has had 3,820 commits made by 7 contributors representing 153,227 lines of code
- is mostly written in XSL Transformation with a very well-commented source code
- has a young, but established codebase maintained by a average size development team with stable Y-O-Y commits
- took an estimated 39 years of effort (COCOMO model) starting with its first commit in April, 2012 ending with its most recent commit 1 day ago
Welcome to art-decor.org
DECOR (Data Elements, Codes, OIDs and Rules) is a methodology to capture the data needs of caregivers in terms of datasets and scenarios and use it to generate various artefacts: documentation, value sets, XML instance validation, generation and processing support, and test tools etc.
DECOR allows to iteratively improve recorded data definitions and link together input from various experts with different background knowledge: caregivers, terminologist, modellers, analysts and interface/communication specialists.
Informaticians
Modelers, analysts and interface / communication specialists add the technical representations as e.g. HL7 CDA templates, HL7 FHIR or IHE profiles. During that design phase and also in the following implementation and production phases the tool allows comprehensive validation and testing. |
The underlying DECOR data format is XML. The generation of HTML-, PDF- and Wiki-based documentation and XML-materials like validation and test environments is possible through a release and archive management function and transformations with stylesheets. The technical artefacts like templates and value sets can be used as input for test suites like IHE Gazelle ObjetcsChecker. Easy consistency checks across all artefacts can be achieved, CDA-based template definition can be verified to be standard conformant with the underlying CDA standard.
ART (Advanced Requirement Tooling) is the DECOR user interface to create and adapt DECOR files, and to generate artefacts from DECOR files.
