My name is
Anouk Suntjens and I am studying Operations Management and Logistics (OML) at
the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e). Currently, I am preparing for my
Master Thesis and part of this is setting up a blog. On this blog I will provide
updates concerning my project and I hope to receive input, so everyone who has
input/feedback/comments is welcome to give it/them. J
My Master Thesis
concerns Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) for Clinical Decision Support Systems
(CDSS); more specifically, I am going to look at (collaborative) annotating
methods. CDSS already indicates the context for this research is the healthcare
domain and MDE techniques can be used to generate applications (apps) from, for
example, existing guideline(s). Annotating is the first step in this process:
the important concepts need to be identified. Secondly, flow charts can be made
and eventually apps. I am going to look at the annotating step and investigate
the different methods and possible ways of collaborative annotating.
My project
will be supervised by my mentor dr. Pieter Van Gorp, an
assistant professor in the IS lab at the TU/e, who is part of the BPM and healthcare research
clusters. Furthermore, I will collaborate with Dr. Pieter Kubben, a
neurosurgeon at the Maastricht University hospital, who has already written
several apps for neurosurgery.
