The HELIOS medical software engineering environment.
The aim of the HELIOS project is to create an integrated Software Engineering Environment (SEE) to facilitate the development and maintenance of medical applications. HELIOS is made of a set of software components, communicating through a software bus called the HELIOS Unification Bus. The object oriented paradigm is used both as the basic structure for building the software components and as the methodology for modelling, storing and retrieving the entities and procedures used in an application. Development standards include UNIX as operating system and X Window/MOTIF as windowing environment. One of the target applications for the HELIOS prototype is the development of a multimedia medical workstation as a front end to a hospital information system.
