Title: Applying component-based modelling in the process of evaluation of
medicinal products
Abstract: Medicinal products’ evaluation and registration are the most
important tasks undertaken by government health departments and agencies in
almost every country in the world. The independent evaluation of medicinal
products is based on strictly defined regulatory activities, in order to
ensure
that all standards on testing, manufacturing and controlling medicinal
products
are achieved. However, each country has its own system of evaluating
medicinal
products which differ amongst themselves not only in vocabulary and
definitions
of medicinal products, but also in different organisational structures and
evaluation practices of individual health authority bodies. This
represents a
serious drawback for efficient local and worldwide registration of medicinal
products. In this paper we address this problem by describing a component-
based software architecture that would facilitate the automation of
medicinal
products’ evaluation and registration, which is seen as a critical task that
can dramatically improve the efficiency and efficacy of regulatory
activities
across different countries and legislations. We employ our component model
within a commercially available distributed component platform and place our
generic architecture within standards in healthcare information systems,
Distributed Healthcare Environment (DHE) and their associated middleware
concepts.
