eHealth Information Infrastructure

3

EU countries are all islands with internal problems

Will they improve their systems for the sake of their citizens in other EU countries?

Only if the solution benefits their internal problems and is cost saving and effective.

A single EU eHealth Information Infrastructure would be slow in uptake unless it is deployed in the first step within countries changing their systems and these countries are seen as leaders

What is shared is meaning, actions and patients – therefor a single EU eHealth Information Infrastructure is viable

Creating a Information Resource

4

Multiple terminologies in the same language are merged into a unified resource.

Linguistic similarity search maps units that share the same meaning.

EDF Athens 2014@GMagnusdottir

…also Multilingually!

5

Cross language merge is deployed to find links and equivalence across language borders..

Deploying an Open Infrastructure

7

Search API

Linguistic Search

Finds terminology and meta data cross-language

Ontology API

Traverses classification system to get meaning

The Information Infrastructure would open the domain from Governments to software developers.

SMEs building targeted solutions can reach a much bigger market.

EDF Athens 2014@GMagnusdottir

IMHO

Translation is not enough to achieve Cross Border

Interoperability

Data and Language Technology provide the only credible path for

Semantic Interoperability

To achieve a single market the EU needs DATA INTEROPERABILTY
