Database External Level Architecture for Use in Healthcare Information Systems

摘要

Healthcare Information Systems rely very often on complex database structures and require complex process ing of the data in order to offer relevant information to the user. In an attempt to extend the benefits deriving from the structural approach present at the internal level of such a database to its external level, this paper proposes a database external level architecture based mostly on server side views, supported by client side views and a minimal number of server side stored procedures.
