BENEFITS

For IT Professionals

HealthCare IT's KnowledgeCapture Software Development Kit (SDK) and Modeling Methodology automatically generates software components with the ease-of-use found in an off-the-shelf application. Specialized software tools translate spreadsheets into full-featured, multi-tier, web-based information management applications including:

  • Web-based user interfaces for data entry, retrieval and data query
  • Server-side business logic tier that ensures data validity
  • Object-oriented persistence tier to manage interactions with database
  • Database schema definition
  • Application Programming Interfaces (APIs) to incorporate KnowledgeCapture into a host application

Software tools include:

  • Model validators
  • Metadata interpreters
  • Code generators for all system tiers (user interface, business logic, data persistence, workflow control)
  • Application Programming Interfaces

Our BIGR® (Biomaterials and Information for Genomics Research) software employs KnowledgeCapture functionality to facilitate the collection and management of large, diverse and distributed repositories of biomaterials. Click on the link at the left to watch an overview of BIGR.

Features and Benefits:

  • Ensure security, integrity and reliability of data repositories and associated application components with a validated software and data warehouse environment.
  • Combined flexibility and ease of development in data capture forms with the full featured robustness typically found only in custom developed software.
  • Reduce the cost and time-to-delivery because nearly all of the data collection system is automatically generated, rather than hand coded.
  • Easily respond to data requirement changes through facile modification of information specifications and regeneration of forms.
  • Rapid addition of new data collection forms to existing suites with no disruption to ongoing operations - all based on a central information model, database schema, and data element taxonomy.
  • Interoperability with applications of your choice, either the HealthCare IT BIGR® system, standalone RDBMS, or other information management systems.
