Abstract

With the gradual maturation of Picture Archiving and Communications Systems (PACS), software development and management has become one of the focal points of PACS research. We have analyzed the current characteristics of PACS software, identified the most important factors for effective PACS software development and management, and we developed a PACS software engineering environment that enforces PACS software integrity while increasing PACS programmer productivity. The use of such an environment is the first step toward the production of reliable, verifiable, reusable, and portable PACS software modules.
