Business case:  Hospital Patient processing system

You were tasked to improve the performance of the local hospital Patient processing system

There are three databases in the new IT system:

The patient database will record and authenticate each patient in the hospital

The employee database will record and authenticate each employee in the hospital

The ambulance database will record each ambulance

Database and Database management systems are on premises for all three (Patient, Employee, and Ambulance). Therefore, current data relating to patients and data related to Ambulances data will be on-premises.  Data related to Employees will be kept on the premises.  The hospital IT system will not keep old patient and Ambulance data on the premises.

Hospital managers would like

– Streamline the patient processing system (admitting and moving to room)

– Better response time for Ambulance to the emergencies

– Better service for the patient coming to the hospital with an Ambulance

– To be able to locate doctors when they are out of the hospital (for emergencies)

– Fast interaction with companies for medical equipment and supplies

QUESTION 1: List three applications of “web-accessible smart devices” in the new hospital that you would recommend for this business case.

QUESTION 2: How the cloud will influence future Operating Systems in the Severs of the Hospital IT system?   (Assume that the servers are in the Local Area networks in the hospital building)

QUESTION 3: How you can use location-aware applications in the new Hospital IT system?

QUESTION 4: How you could use cloud-enabled communication among smart devices in the new Hospital IT system?
