This paper is intended to serve as a springboard for a panel discussion with audience participation on information filtering and retrieval. Medical informatics is an emerging specialty which links medicine and technology. With the unprecedented availability of digital information, retrieval and filtering are becoming important aspects of medical informatics. The authors offer an overview of medical applications for filtering and retrieval, and introduce important state-of-the-art techniques in a way that does not presuppose prior knowledge in this field. This provides a basis for understanding issues and research developments in this field. The ensuing discussion examines challenges and opportunities for workers in this field.< >

China in 1944. He received the B.S. degree in Physics and M.S. degree in Electronics from Peking University Beijing China in 1968 and 1981 respectively. Since 1981 he has been on the staff of the Department of Radio-Electronics of Peking University. In 1983 he was appointed as a Lecturer. In 1989 he became an Associate Professor. Since September 1991 he has been doing research as an Academic Visitor at the Department of Electronic and Electrical Engineering of University College London. He has been engaged in the electromagnetic field theory and its application. Recently his research interest has been in the computer modelling of optical and microwave structures by using edge element methods. J. Brian Davies was born in Liverpool

The eigenmodes in electromagnetic cavities, loaded with arbitrarily shaped dielectric materials, are computed by the edge element method. The computation shows that the well known 'spurious modes' no longer appear. Formulae are given and verified so that the number of zero eigenvalues, which come from del x H = 0, may be accurately predicted. Formulae for the order and density of the global matrices are given for a rectangular cavity regularly divided into bricks and tetrahedra, allowing an associated comparison between the contrasting edge and nodal element formulations. Comparison of the computed results with available theoretical and previously published data show the edge element approach to be a robust, accurate and effective method.

A functional approach to specifying the requirements of a computer system is discussed. The method allows system requirements to be documented, whether the system is implemented using a computer and peripheral devices, or, for example, relays and analog components. The method is a refinement of the method used in the A-7 aircraft software requirements model document. The approach is illustrated with examples derived from a software requirements document for a water level monitoring system.< >
