4th Annual SOA in Healthcare
Conference: Save the Date and Call for Participation
Conference will be held June 14-16, 2011 in
Washington, D.C.
Needham, MA, USA and Ann Arbor, MI, USA - January 13,
2011 - OMG® and Health Level Seven® International (HL7)
today announced that the fourth annual SOA in Healthcare
Conference: "SOA Road-map to Integration: Architecting
Interoperability in Healthcare" will be held June
14-16, 2011 in Washington, D.C. The Review Committee has
issued the Call for Participation. Registration and abstract
submission details may be found online at http://www.omg.org/hc-pr.
The focus of the SOA in Healthcare conference is to
convey real-world experiences, assembling a community of
peers to exchange ideas and discuss what has worked, what
did not work, and review best practices. Not a "tech
industry" event, this conference is exclusively
healthcare focused, and will highlight the challenges unique
to healthcare organizations and emphasize cross-industry
solutions that are viable within the healthcare domain. It
is targeted primarily to a health-IT savvy audience.
A wide cross-section of the health industry will
participate, including healthcare providers, payers, public
health organizations and vendors from both the public and
private sector.
The conference will be experientially focused, with
speakers bringing their personal and organizational
experiences to what will be a presentation and
discussion-oriented forum.
Call for Abstracts
The conference Review Committee is seeking proposals for
presentations based on "real-world" organizational
experiences, evaluations, case studies or research papers
relevant to the conference themes of SOA integration and
architecting interoperability in healthcare. Please indicate
whether you are recommending your submission for the
Executive Summit, the Functional Track, or the Technical
Track. Topics may include (but aren't limited to):
- Modeling (SoaML, SysML, BPMN, etc.)
- Semantic Computability and Interoperability
- Ontology and Vocabularies
- Decision Support Systems
- Cloud Computing
- Enterprise Architecture (Business, System, SOA and
Technical)
The abstract submission deadline is midnight EST on
