Task-specific authoring functions for end-users in a hospital information system.
Authoring functions--integrated in a Hospital Information System (HIS)--provide a means for physicians and nurses to adapt partly their man/machine interface. We successfully implemented task-specific authoring functions that enable end-users to comprehend and structure a large body of multimedia documents, to focus attention during medical decision making, to speed up medical tasks and to standardise the drafting of documents.
