IT support for home health care is an expanding area within health care IT development. Home health care differs from other in- or outpatient care delivery forms in a number of ways, and thus, the introduction of home health care applications must be based on a rigorous analysis of necessary requirements to secure safe and reliable health care. This article reports early experiences from the development of a home health care application based on emerging java technologies. A prototype application for the follow-up of diabetes patients is presented and discussed in relation to a list of general requirements on home health care applications.

The actual development of distributed information technologies and java programming enables employing them also in the medical arena to support the retrieval, integration and evaluation of heterogeneous data and multimodal images in a web browser environment. With this aim, we used them to implement a client-server architecture based on software agents. The client side is a java applet running in a web browser and providing a friendly medical user interface to browse and visualize different patient and medical test data, integrating them properly. The server side manages secure connections and queries to heterogeneous remote databases and file systems containing patient personal and clinical data. Based on the java Advanced Imaging API, processing and analysis tools were developed to support the evaluation of remotely retrieved bioimages through the quantification of their features in different regions of interest. The java platform-independence allows the centralized management of the implemented prototype and its deployment to each site where an intranet or internet connection is available. Giving healthcare providers effective support for comprehensively browsing, visualizing and evaluating medical images and records located in different remote repositories, the developed prototype can represent an important aid in providing more efficient diagnoses and medical treatments.

In order to satisfy an increasing need to respond rapidly to changing business requirements and knowledge, and to reduce implementation costs, the mainstream business world is progressively relying on the expert systems technology. In addition, recent e-business initiatives are requiring companies to provide "web-enabled" systems in order to maintain a competitive edge in their marketplace. In this paper, we describe our experience in capturing the business logic and implementing a web-based expert system for vehicle registration fee computation at California Department Of Motor Vehicles. The system has been implemented using the Blaze Advisor rules engine and has been deployed to Sun's J2EE Reference Implementation of a java application server. Our work has shown that using expert system technology to implement a web-based, business-driven solution is certainly a viable and promising option. Deployment of the rule service as an Enterprise javaBean exposes the rulebase to various types of business clients, and provides a consistent and adaptable implementation of the business domain.

This article is about the developpement of new Internet services at the Network and Computer Science Departement of the National Institute of Telecommunications (INT) of Evry. It deals mainly with a project related to an applications server, purely java and Web (HTML) oriented, which main objective is to offer a set of online applications to any Web user (even mobile in the future), and a multi-point multi-media architecture (client/server), also purely java, aiming to allow connnected users to exchange any type of data (text, audio, video,etc), independently from their transport protocol (TCP or UDP).

To provide easy retrieval, integration and evaluation of multimodal cardiology images and data in a web browser environment, distributed application technologies and java programming were used to implement a client-server architecture based on software agents. The server side manages secure connections and queries to heterogeneous remote databases and file systems containing patient personal and clinical data. The client side is a java applet running in a web browser and providing a friendly medical user interface to perform queries on patient and medical test data and integrate and visualize properly the various query results. A set of tools based on java Advanced Imaging API enables to process and analyze the retrieved cardiology images, and quantify their features in different regions of interest. The platform-independence java technology makes the developed prototype easy to be managed in a centralized form and provided in each site where an intranet or internet connection can be located. Giving the healthcare providers effective tools for querying, visualizing and evaluating comprehensively cardiology medical images and records in all locations where they can need them - i.e. emergency, operating theaters, ward, or even outpatient clinics - the developed prototype represents an important aid in providing more efficient diagnoses and medical treatments.

This paper describes the creation of a set of demonstration applications for a personal communication device for use at the javaOne 99 Developers Conference. The major design issues encountered in the project are described along with the resulting impact on the project. These include defining the navigation model for the Back key, dealing with the issues that arose when the device hardware target was changed in mid-process, and managing the design process to leverage prior work when major goals were altered late in the project.
