Abstract

Healthcare has been recognized as one of the most important areas for enterprise application integration. This paper presents a novel information brokering architecture that supports ad hoc and automated configurations among distributed, possibly autonomous and heterogeneous, entities that compose healthcare systems with various degrees of privacy requirements. Here, privacy is treated in terms of three attributes: identity, capability and preferences. A brokering service is modeled as an agent with a specific architecture and interaction protocol that are appropriate to carry the required privacy degree. The architecture has been implemented using coordinated intelligent, rational agent (CIR-agent) model for distributed information healthcare prototype using JADE, FIPA-complaint platform.
