Biomedical Engineering

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is twofold:

  1. A)

    We primarily want to disseminate our experiences of using the power of ontological engineering when dealing with interoperability and the problem of data sharing in heterogeneous computational environments in healthcare.

  2. B)

    At the same time we illustrate the complexity of the manipulation of ontological concepts in order to achieve A) above, by giving a detailed description of the steps involved in the process of delivering data sharing.
