Modelling and eliciting organisational and information system requirements for medical information systems. 1994

Centre for Software Reliability, University of Newcastle Upon Tyne, England.

In this paper an outline of a modelling technique will be presented that allows for the encapsulation and analysis of the social and technical aspects of an organisational information system. This notation is used to construct and analyse both the static and dynamic models of organisations and organisational behaviour. The construction and analysis is achieved through the use of concepts such as role and responsibility. The conceptual modelling framework is then applied to a case study. This case study is based upon an accident and emergency department of an inner city hospital situated within the centre of Dublin, Ireland.
