Conference Paper
The Fast Healthcare Interoperability Resources (FHIR) is an open suite of specifications and software implementations of the Health Level 7 version 3 (HL7v3) standard. It has been proposed to provide a consistent API for the HL7v3 CDA. However, the core issues of HL7v3 are not solved at the API level. The community around the project are proposing...
Conference Paper
Controlled vocabularies such as terminologies and ontologies are regarded as a solution to the achievement of semantic interoperability across healthcare applications. This is yet to be attained. The semantics of current healthcare applications are directly in the source code and database structure and therefore cannot be readily shared. The multil...

... Schaeffer et al. 4 retratam por outro lado a vantagem no uso de tecnologias para reduzir custos em saúde, eventos adversos e reinternações, otimizando assim todo o processo de funcionamento de um hospital. A questão do registro dos dados, portanto, torna-se uma questão fundamental 5 . ...
... A similar model was proposed by Corici et al. [50]. Luz et al. [51] tried to resolve issues at the API level to improve time efficiency. The authors applied RDF as a semantic information structure to store and process linked data using XML as a multi-level data storage framework. ...
... To keep the research of the IoT in line with people's real-life needs, the IoT needs to develop in the direction of intellectualization and be more accurate in information transmission and expression. Semantic technology is introduced into the European FP7IERC research project [11] to solve the operability of communication and information exchange between heterogeneous IoT devices [12]. The introduction of semantic technology dramatically improves the problem of insufficient machine understanding ability. ...
