20090248440 | Ensuring referential integrity of medical image data - A method, a system and a computer program product are disclosed for providing information concerning scheduled procedure steps and/or information concerning performed procedure steps within a taskflow which includes a plurality of tasks for processing medical image data. Each taskflow is associated with a taskflow specific context folder. In at least one embodiment, a publisher task is adapted to select selected data out of the medical image data. For these selected data, meta-information is updated by incorporating additional information concerning scheduled procedure steps and performed procedure steps. This is done by maintaining referential integrity between image data, scheduled procedure steps and performed procedure steps. | 10-01-2009 |
20100211613 | OPERATING METHOD FOR A COMPUTER WITH DATA MANAGEMENT - A storage area can be accessed by a computer. Files are stored in the storage area, in which application-related files are stored. Each of the files stored in the storage area is alternatively stored as protected or unprotected file. In at least one embodiment, as a function of commands, which are prespecified by a user to the computer within the scope of running an application, the protected files and/or the unprotected files are read out of the storage area by the computer. Furthermore, in at least one embodiment, as a function of commands which are prespecified by the user to the computer within the scope of running the application, the unprotected files stored in the storage area are changed, deleted and/or converted into protected files and/or new files are determined on the basis of files stored in the storage area and are stored as unprotected files in the storage area. Irrespective of the command prespecified by the user to the computer within the scope of running the application, the computer does not cause the files stored in the storage area to be changed, deleted or converted into unprotected files. | 08-19-2010 |
20100223617 | METHOD AND COMPUTER SYSTEM FOR DESIGNING AND/OR PROVIDING COMPUTER-AIDED TASKS FOR MEDICAL TASK FLOWS - A method and a computer system are disclosed for designing and/or providing computer-aided tasks for medical task flows. In at least one embodiment, the method includes providing one or more tasks of at least one task flow, which can exchange data with one or a number of other tasks, in so far as they comply with at least one requirement for exchanging data; providing task flow management, which manages requirements in respect of a task and grants a task access for a task flow according to at least one of the requirements; providing at least one task container, which is made available as host for a task, in so far as the task complies with at least one requirement for access to the host; and providing at least one domain platform, which is used to convert the functionality and logic of at least one task, in so far as the task complies with at least one requirement in respect of the conversion. | 09-02-2010 |
20100229153 | Providing a number of web services for imaging optional medical applications - A system and a computer-implemented method are disclosed, as well as a computer readable medium, for providing a number of web services for at least one medical viewing application, so as to provide the application with application-exceeding basic functionalities with regard to a transfer management service, a data management service, a workflow management service, a report management service, a protocol management service, an operating management service and an enterprise application integration management service. A web service of at least one embodiment, in that case, includes at least one remote service component, at least one business object and at least one service component. | 09-09-2010 |
20100241443 | Sequential control and execution of medical applications at different workstations - A process, a system and a computer program product and computer readable medium are disclosed for the sequential control and execution of a medical task. In at least one embodiment, the task is processed with the aid of a plurality of different, computer-implemented, medical-technical, stateful applications. In at least one embodiment, the invention uses a 3-layer software architecture including a data layer, a business logic layer, and presentation layer. With the aid of a central server, the option is provided of a one-time loading of the extensive datasets for a task and the applications for a task, so that the datasets and the applications are subsequently preserved for a user of the medical task. As a result, multiple waiting periods for the user are avoided. | 09-23-2010 |
20110078693 | METHOD FOR REDUCING THE WAITING TIME WHEN WORK STEPS ARE EXECUTED FOR THE FIRST TIME - A method and a medical computer system for executing the method are disclosed for reducing the waiting time for at least one user of the computer system when they first execute at least one work step in the computer system. The method includes pre-starting a process which is not yet assigned to a user, and loading the services into the process, which the applications initiated by a user to execute the at least one work step are very likely to call without the user already being assigned to the process. | 03-31-2011 |
20110138392 | OPERATING METHOD FOR A COMPUTER WITH PERFORMANCE OPTIMIZATION BY GROUPING APPLICATIONS - In at least one embodiment, if the pre-start level has the value empty container, the computer creates a container within the framework of the pre-start but does not load any application into the container. If the pre-start level has the value application, the computer creates a respective container within the framework of the pre-start for each application. If the pre-start level has a higher value, the computer determines within the framework of the pre-start a degree of grouping for the applications assigned to the respective pre-started unit, and groups the applications in accordance with the degree of grouping determined into at least one container group. Within the framework of the processing of the complex tasks, the computer terminates on switching from one application to another application, the application still being executed only if the application involves an application not able to be suspended. | 06-09-2011 |
20110154355 | METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR RESOURCE ALLOCATION FOR THE ELECTRONIC PREPROCESSING OF DIGITAL MEDICAL IMAGE DATA - A method and a system, for resource allocation provided for implementation of the method, are specified for the electronic preprocessing of digital medical image data. In at least one embodiment, provision is subsequently made to classify a plurality of preprocessing jobs, in particular by way of a classifier module, to determine whether they were generated interactively by a user request or automatically. Each preprocessing job is placed in a queue in accordance with the classification, in particular by way of an execution coordination module of the system. Data processing resources for job execution are assigned to each preprocessing job taking account of the classification, in particular by way of a resource allocation module of the system, with interactive preprocessing jobs being handled with higher priority than automatic preprocessing orders. | 06-23-2011 |
20110191301 | SYSTEM FOR ARCHIVING COMPOSITE FILES AND METHOD FOR OPERATING SUCH A SYSTEM - A system for archiving composite files including metadata and payload data in a file system. In at least one embodiment, the system includes a database for storing, in particular exclusively, a first group of metadata of the archived composite files, corresponding to search criteria usable in a query; at least one information layer in the file system for storing a second group of metadata of the archived composite files in storage files, the second group in particular including the metadata of the first group and/or all metadata; and the archived composite files stored in the file system. | 08-04-2011 |
