1. 1 SW Framework for enhancing the interoperability and reusability of e- Health Services April, 2012. National Information Society Agency, Korea eGovframe Center Eunju Kim, Ph.D. outframe@nia.or.kr

2. 2 E-Health Services implementation issues How can we implement them efficiently and effectively. - Every e-Health service is not same but not so different - we can reuse the patterns and components of e-Health services among projects - reusability, interoperability and extensibility are needed Development Area HW OS Common Technical Area Common Business Area in e-Health Unique Area HW OS Common Technical Area Common Business Area in e-Health Unique Area HW OS Common Technical Area Common Business Area in e-Health Unique Area E-Health Service A E-Health Service B E-Health Service C

3. 3 E-Health Services implementation issues How can we assure the quality of the e-Health services? -Usually, e-Health Services perform very critical missions -Developing skills are not even among developers -Technical issues frequently causes lack of time for developing business issues Business requirement? Interface with Tuxedo? Thin Client? cache? Operation Transaction control? Error handling? Business functions? Screen layout? Business log Framework A Text transformation? System log? Batch? Package composition?

4. 4 Software Framework SW Frameworks are a special case of software libraries in that they are reusable abstractions of code wrapped in a well-defined API[Wikipedia] Key features of SW frameworks that separate them from normal libraries – Inversion of control: In a framework, unlike in libraries or normal applications, the program's flow of control is not dictated by the caller, but by the framework – Default behavior: A framework has a default behavior. This default behavior must actually be some useful behavior and not a series of no-ops – Extensibility: A framework can be extended by the user usually by selective overriding or specialized by user code providing specific functionality – Non-modifiable framework code: The framework code, in general, is not allowed to be modified. User can extend the framework, but not modify code.

5. 5 Software Framework benefits In application development stage, 20 to 30% of development cost and effort can be saved by applying Software Framework. Hardware Operating system Middleware Service application Development area (100% done by developers) Development area (100% done by developers) * IS : Information System

6. 6 Software framework benefits We can assure SW quality independent of the individual developer by asking them to focus on the biz logics while other technological issues are handled by SW framework. Business requirement? Interface with Tuxedo? Thin Client? cache? Operation Transaction control? Error handling? Business functions? Screen layout? Business log Framework A Text transformation? System log? Batch? Package composition? Business requirement? Business functions? Screen layout? Business improvement? Architecture policy Common technological service Common biz service SW Framework

7. 7 Software Framework Benefits Reduction of TCO and enhancement of ROI can be achieved System development 20~30% productivity enhancement through the reuse of design and source codes Simplification and Standardization of development process System quality enhancement with the help of proven architecture Time and cost reduction of system development 20~30% productivity enhancement through the reuse of design and source codes Simplification and Standardization of development process System quality enhancement with the help of proven architecture Time and cost reduction of system development System operation Minimize incidents of error Efficiency improvement through operation process standardization Secure performance and stability Minimize incidents of error Efficiency improvement through operation process standardization Secure performance and stability

8. 8 SW framework became a basic tool for application development in Korea (71% of e-Government system from 2004 to 2007). 71% 29% If an application is implemented on the basis of a venders SW framework, Biz logic becomes dependent on the SW framework. Conventionally, SW framework is delivered as a black box So only the framework provider can modify or maintain the application, bringing the dependency on the framework provider.
