Abstract An emerging healthcare delivery model is enabling a new era of clinical care based on well-informed decision-making processes. Current healthcare information systems (HISs) fall short of adopting this model due to a conflict between information security needed to implement the new model and those already enforced locally to support traditional care models. Meanwhile, in recent times, the healthcare sector has shown a substantial interest in the potential of using blockchain technology for providing quality care to patients. No blockchain solution proposed so far has fully addressed emerging cross-organization information-sharing needs in healthcare. In this paper, we aim to study the… More >

Abstract Legacy systems deteriorate due to changing business practices and recurrent problems such as high maintenance cost, lack of agility, and degraded performance. Modernization is highly desired especially for those organizations where key business processes are managed by legacy systems. During modernizing, two important aspects are usually ignored, i.e., the transformation of a legacy system to an enterprise solution, and considerations of quality concerns. This overlooking leads to a modernized information system that partially achieves the expected outcome. In this paper, we propose a Capability Maturity Model Integration (CMMI) Compliant Modernization Framework (CCMF) that addresses the problems of legacy systems by… More >
