Abstract
In terms of medical techniques, Taiwan has gained international recognition in recent years. However, the medical information system industry in Taiwan is still at a developing stage compared with the software industries in other nations. In addition, systematic development processes are indispensable elements of software development. They can help developers increase their productivity and efficiency and also avoid unnecessary risks arising during the development process. Thus, this paper presents an application of Light-Weight Capability Maturity Model Integration (LW-CMMI) to Chang Gung Medical Research Project (CMRP) in the Nuclear medicine field. This application was intended to integrate user requirements, system design and testing of software development processes into three layers (Domain, Concept and Instance) model. Then, expressing in structural System Modeling Language (SysML) diagrams and converts part of the manual effort necessary for project management maintenance into computational effort, for example: (semi-) automatic delivery of traceability management. In this application, it supports establishing artifacts of “requirement specification document”, “project execution plan document”, “system design document” and “system test document”, and can deliver a prototype of lightweight project management tool on the Nuclear Medicine software project. The results of this application can be a reference for other medical institutions in developing medical information systems and support of project management to achieve the aim of patient safety.Electronic supplementary materialThe online version of this article (doi:10.1186/2193-1801-2-266) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users.
Highlights
The main objective in this research is to provide precise and unambiguous specifications of the system requirement analysis, system design and testing, establishing traceability between them
After defining the conceptual model and testified rules, we can use them to effectively realize project management in different phases of project to consider varied success factors of implementation of CGMH medical software project which was approved by Institutional Review Board/ Chang Gung Memorial Hospital (IRB/CGMH) with reference number 100- 2903A3
Research case background In order to meet the people’s growing demands for medical services, CHANG GUNG MEDICAL FOUNDATION with hospitals were built in Keelung and Kaohsiung following those in Taipei &Linkou, Taiwan
Summary
The main objective in this research is to provide precise and unambiguous specifications of the system requirement analysis, system design and testing, establishing traceability between them. It includes: user participation at project development and implementation phases, defining right personnel for task assignments, providing suitable training and support based on knowledge and skill needs of tasks, and monitoring system use in the early stages of implementation (Gagnon et al 2012). We will give the LW-CMMI system requirement lists and present the integration of them into three layers model with standard software engineering approach to provide reference methodology for academic
