Abstract
HOLON is a research and development effort in extending middleware in the healthcare field to support application development, in general, and guideline applications, in particular. This framework makes use of open standards for architecture, software, guideline KBs, clinical repository models, information encodings, and intelligent system modules and agents. By pursuing the use of such standards in our middleware components, we hope eventually to maximize reusability of the HOLON framework by others who also adhere to these open standards. This research reflects lessons learned about the extensions needed in these standards if healthcare middleware frameworks are to transparently support application developers and their users over the web.
