PAST aims to develop an innovative ICT
system supporting visitors of Archaeological Sites. Visitors will use
handheld PCs (operated via voice commands, touch screens and
text-to-speech) connected to a local Server via wireless networks.The
Server will include an Archaeological Repository, storing data and
information relevant to PAST, and a Legacy System Integration Layer,
exporting relevant data from legacy archaeological multimedia databases
to the PAST system. Servers installed at remote sites will be networked
via Internet: each PAST instance will be able to seamlessly access
information residing in any other instance, therefore creating a
distributed information space.The PAST Server will also include: a
Visitors Profiler, collecting static and dynamic information about
visitors, tracking interactions with the PAST system, and building and
dynamically revising profiles; a Visit Organiser, which, based upon the
visitors' profiles, the current context of the visit and the
information available, plans personalised visits, dynamically revises
the plans and delivers, at any time during the visit, context-dependent
information, personalised in both thier content and their presentation.

This Project will design, develop,
pilot, evaluate an innovative Internet-based E-Commerce platform
(E-NTRY) enabling more open,
transparent, fair and, at the same time, more efficient and more
cost-effective industrial procurement
practices. The software system will support in a comprehensive and
integrated way the entire range of
activities, both within individual organisations and across the entire
procurement chain involved in the 3 key processes of:
Tendering, Bidding and Contract Negotiation. It is a specific objective
of E-NTRY to create a generic
tool, meeting the requirements of a wide range of Industry sectors:
pilot Users are a tendering and a bidding company from the
Telecommunication
Industry, but requirements and solutions will be generalised by E-NTRY
IT partners to other
sectors, and most notably to the Maritime Industry, Civil Construction
and Public
Administration. The project will exploit advanced technologies, and
most notably
XML, Java, workflow inter-operability and CORBA technologies.
Objectives:
The objective of the project is to increase dramatically the quality of
the services provided by European Union hospitals to
patients, while at the same time reducing the costs incurred. To
achieve the above
goals, the project intends to design, develop, test, validate in pilot
installations and commercially exploit an ICT infrastructure which will
exploit a number of technological
advances, among which, in particular: wireless networks, handheld PCs,
speech
technologies, workflow systems, advanced voice-based Human-Computer
Interaction
techniques.
Work description:
Technically, the project will design and develop an innovative software
system, the key components of which are:
- A client-side, mobile application to manage key clinical information and to support workflow and co-ordination with other actors in the hospital ward and personal work organisation. The project will exploit small (wearable) and cheap handheld PCs, with sophisticated human-computer interfaces leveraging upon graphics, pen-based and, mainly, upon voice-based interaction. It aims at achieving unprecedented levels allow to have access via reliability and overall usability. It will support vocal password and vocal authentication. The screens of handheld PCs to elementary items in complex clinical records with a maximum of three "clicks". It will enable reception of instructions, tasks assignment, reminders, therefore improving overall co-ordination and synchronisation within the hospital ward and reducing risks of omissions, delays and mistakes;
- A wireless communication infrastructure. It will allow cheap and wide devices inter-connectivity, allowing handheld PCs to be networked with the server regardless of their location. The communication infrastructure will achieve high reliability, high performance and high safety (and no interference with medical equipment);
- A server-side workflow application. It will support integration with
existing systems within the hospital
(including clinical records management systems) and it will make sure
that data and information are accessible and distributed to all
interested
actors, at the same time meeting the strictest requirements for data
security and privacy. Existing clinical records management systems will
be
integrated, to avoid re-inventing the wheel. This will be achieved by
creating an open system, which will be based upon a meta-model for
patients' clinical record, will build upon existing and emerging
standards in the medical
domain, and will exploit XML as the underlying representation. It will
also support co-ordination and synchronisation of actors an
activities, by, e.g., scheduling tasks, sending alarms, generating
e-mail
messages.
Milestones:
- Improved information distribution, thus more informed and more accurate decisions and actions;
- Improved quality and safety standards
of the hospital
services, thanks to higher accuracy, reduced delays, omissions and
mistakes;
- Improved synchronisation and co-ordination of activities, leading to
a reduction of the length of stay of patients by 10%
(from the current 7.4 days - the EU average - to 6.7 days);
- Dramatic reduction of time wasting for doctors and nurses (currently
30% to 50% of their time is spent filing and retrieving
information) by 50%, leading to an increase of productivity by at least
15%.
