QUERY WITH DATA DISTRIBUTION IN A HOSPITAL NETWORK

摘要

A system and method for negotiating between a business intelligence application and one or more data sources. Business data from devices is received, identified and stored using a data meta model that is updated as devices and the hospital environment change. The data meta model allows the business intelligence application to negotiate with the hospital data sources to access relevant data for evaluations. The data meta model includes an object model that is configurable, updatable, adaptable, and evolvable over time.
