title: Specification of a computer-based information system for ophthalmology using modeling and simulation techniques.
abstract: A model of an information system for ophthalmologic practices has been constructed using an object-oriented development environment. This model allows us to dynamically visualize the proceedings in a medical environment by graphical means. The model includes an object-oriented basis data model for ophthalmologic applications and tools for the medical staff e.g., a patient record browser. Special (sub)systems can be integrated into the basis model. Some aspects of the development process will be discussed.
