An object-oriented model for the integration of knowledge-based systems.
This paper discusses functional integration, data integration, and knowledge integration as basic problems concerning the integration of knowledge-based systems into a hospital information system. A system model for an integrated knowledge-based system is introduced. Object-oriented models for the systems meta-database, patient database, and knowledge-base are presented. It is expected that the reader is familiar with the basic concepts of the object-oriented approach.
