Mise en oeuvre d’un processus de conception objet pour l’implémentation de règles de décisions destinées à la validation pharmaceutique

The most important part of alarm systems is the rules set that allows triggering alerts. We propose a generic rule design framework which can support the design and the implementation of alerts for drug prescriptions or their pharmaceutical validation. Our approach takes into account two important criteria, which represent two real challenges for the system designers. First, the developer needs to identify and model both users’ requirements and business processes in which the alarm system works. Second, the developer needs to model the knowledge associated with the decision rules with an appropriate language. We show how the Unified Process helps to model the business process for pharmaceutical validation. Knowledge representation benefited from use of SBVR, a language dedicated to rule representation within an object oriented framework. After a successful implementation of a prototype we plan to integrate such system within the hospital information system of the Georges Pompidou hospital.
